Patient's question:
There is one on the sole, and two on each leg, they are red. I'm quite anxious, could the doctor please take a look at me?Doctor's answer:
This is not hand, foot, and mouth disease. The rash of hand, foot, and mouth disease primarily appears on the soles of the feet, not the back of the feet. This rash is related to insect bites. You can use calamine lotion or topical hydrocortisone cream for this.If there are students with hand, foot, and mouth disease at school, it’s best to avoid close contact with them. You may consider keeping your child out of the kindergarten for the time being and returning after the incubation period. Hand, foot, and mouth disease can cause significant harm to children, so it’s recommended that parents take their child to a specialist for follow-up treatment and seek medical guidance for care.
In daily life, you can give your child some juice, which is beneficial for digestion and vitamin absorption, helping to prevent stomach issues. We hope your child can recover quickly!
