Patient's question:
Hello, baby is ten months old, with hand, foot, and mouth disease for three days. It only started fevering early this morning, and now it has taken medicine but hasn't subsided, with a temperature around 38 degrees. What should I do? The baby is easily startled during naps. Please advise on how to treat a ten-month-old baby with hand, foot, and mouth disease for three days.Doctor's answer:
The baby has a fever that is difficult to reduce, and is easily startled, indicating that the symptoms of hand, foot, and mouth disease are improving. Currently, there are neurological symptoms, and intravenous treatment is needed, as well as antiviral therapy. Hand, foot, and mouth disease can cause significant harm to children, so it is recommended that parents take their child to a specialized clinic for follow-up treatment under the guidance of a doctor. In daily life, it is okay to give the child some juice, which is beneficial for digestion and vitamin absorption, and can help prevent stomach upsets. We hope the child can recover as soon as possible!
