Patient's question:
Sick for 2 days, while taking medication for hand, foot, and mouth disease, what other medications should be taken for cough and runny nose? Please ask how to treat hand, foot, and mouth disease in babies.Doctor's answer:
When the child's illness first manifests, the overall symptoms are relatively mild, similar to a cold. There may be low fever, fatigue, sore throat, drooling, runny nose, and a lack of appetite. After 1 to 2 days, rashes may appear on the palms, soles, oral mucosa, and around the anus. In very few cases, the rash may spread to the limbs and buttocks, though it rarely reappears on the torso. The small blisters in the mouth are surrounded by a red halo, and the blisters can merge and rupture quickly, forming white erosions. The small blisters on the palms and soles are the size of rice grains or peas, are tight, and do not merge. Some children may also experience abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting.
