However, the child is no longer feverish now! How should a nine-month-old child with hand, foot, and mouth disease be treated?Doctor's answer:
From the situation you described, the hand, foot, and mouth disease in your child is primarily caused by a viral infection. Pay close attention to rest, and you can use ribavirin for antiviral treatment, as well as Qingkailing granules for clearing heat and detoxifying. It may also be a good idea to have a complete blood count test. Since your child has been affected by hand, foot, and mouth disease, the family must take the child to see a doctor immediately for treatment to prevent the use of small advertisements for drugs. Proper medication is essential. For parents, it is important to provide the child with enough care and attention, and to do everything possible to help the child receive timely treatment for the disease.
