Patient's question:
A child has liver enlargement, oral herpes, and swollen lymph nodes. Is it caused by hand, foot, and mouth disease? Is there a direct relationship between EB virus and hand, foot, and mouth disease? What are the differences between hand, foot, and mouth disease and EB virus?Doctor's answer:
Both are suffering from a viral infection, so the current situation requires active antiviral treatment. At the same time, during a viral infection, the immune system is weakened, so the use of many anti-inflammatory drugs is beneficial. This is a good approach. I wish you good health. The child is affected by hand, foot, and mouth disease, so the mother must take the child to see a doctor promptly for treatment. It is important to prevent blind medication to alleviate symptoms. For parents, it is essential to closely monitor the child's condition and do everything possible to help them receive timely treatment for the disease.
