Patient's question:
Child is 6 years old, infected with hand, foot, and mouth disease last Sunday and has been recovering for several days. Started coughing yesterday, and today has a red throat. What medicine would be good to take?Doctor's answer:
You mentioned earlier that your child got hand, foot, and mouth disease last Sunday and has been feeling better for several days. However, he started coughing yesterday and has a red throat today. It seems like your child might have tonsillitis. You can give him some anti-inflammatory medication to relieve the symptoms.Hand, foot, and mouth disease can be very harmful to children. Once a mother notices her child's symptoms, she should take them to a regular hospital for diagnosis immediately. At the same time, she should pay close attention to the child's care. It is recommended to follow a proper diet and avoid cold foods. We hope the child can receive effective treatment and recover quickly!
