Patient's question:
Doctor, the child suddenly had a fever today and went for a follow-up visit to confirm the hand, foot, and mouth disease. Small blisters have appeared all over the body. How can we confirm that the baby has hand, foot, and mouth disease?Doctor's answer:
The baby has a fever for 1 day. If there are no other abnormal symptoms, hand, foot, and mouth disease cannot be diagnosed. It is possible to temporarily monitor the temperature and provide anti-infection treatment.If the baby has blisters in the mouth and rashes on the skin, accompanied by fever and other symptoms, hand, foot, and mouth disease should be considered. Active anti-infection and fever-reducing treatments should be provided.
Hand, foot, and mouth disease has a significant impact on children. Once parents notice their child's symptoms, they should immediately take them to a regular hospital for diagnosis. At the same time, parents should pay close attention to their child's diet, recommend a balanced diet, and avoid cold foods. It is hoped that the child can receive symptomatic treatment and recover quickly!
