Patient's question:
My baby is a little over a year old and has hand, foot, and mouth disease. It has been feverish for the past two days. The children's hospital here said that intravenous drip for three days is effective. What should I pay attention to if I get hand, foot, and mouth disease?Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you mentioned above, hand, foot, and mouth disease is generally a contagious illness. Pay attention to symptomatic treatment. It is recommended to drink more water, eat light and easily digestible foods, and take appropriate doses of ribavirin antiviral oral liquid.

It is recommended to have a proper diet and avoid cold foods. It is hoped that the child can receive professional treatment to help them recover!
