Patient's question:
Hand, foot, and mouth disease on the fourth day, there are many red spots on my hands, and a few of them are slightly scabbed. Can you eat red bean buns?Doctor's answer:
Hand, foot, and mouth disease refers to the recurrence of blisters on the hands, feet, buttocks, and inside of the mouth, usually accompanied by fever. It is most commonly caused by viral infections, with a smaller portion being severe cases of bacterial infections. If you have hand, foot, and mouth disease, you should have a urine test to check for bacterial, viral, or mycoplasma infections. Based on the results of the urine test, symptomatic treatment should be administered. If the urine test indicates severe contagiousness, hospitalization and intravenous fluid treatment may be necessary.Eat a light diet and consume soft, easily digestible foods. For oral blisters, you can use the children's herbal spray "Kaihou Jian" and eat red bean buns. Children threatened by hand, foot, and mouth disease should be taken to the hospital for timely medical treatment. Parents must avoid using small advertisements for medication and ensure proper medication.
