Patient's question:
Feeling hot, about 39 degrees, lasting for about 8 days. At 14 months, two small red spots appeared on my hands, feeling hot. The doctor confirmed it was hand, foot, and mouth disease. Hospitalized for 9 days. Please ask if hand, foot, and mouth disease can recur?Doctor's answer:
Children who have just recovered from hand, foot, and mouth disease will have a certain level of immunity for a period of time, but after some time, they may still be susceptible to reinfection. The main method to prevent hand, foot, and mouth disease is to pay attention to personal hygiene and avoid crowded places. Hand, foot, and mouth disease poses significant harm to children, so it is recommended that parents take their children to a specialized clinic for follow-up treatment and follow the doctor's guidance for treatment. In daily life, it is beneficial to give children some juice, which helps with digestion and vitamin absorption, and prevents stomach upsets. We hope the child can recover quickly!
