Patient's question:
One week ago, I started having a fever, but didn't realize it. After the fever subsided, a few blisters appeared on my hands. Now they have already formed scabs. Can the baby go to school after the blisters have formed scabs?Doctor's answer:
As you described this situation, if the hand, foot, and mouth disease is not severe and has already formed, you can stop taking the medication and go back to school. It is recommended to pay attention to a light diet in the near future and prevent excessive local moisture exposure. Also, be mindful of drinking more warm water to prevent stomach problems, cold symptoms, and many other issues. Children affected by hand, foot, and mouth disease should be taken to the doctor immediately for treatment to avoid blind medication to alleviate their symptoms. For parents, it is essential to provide their children with enough care and attention, and to do their best to help them receive timely treatment for the illness.
