Patient's question:
The doctor confirmed it was hand, foot, and mouth disease. There are blisters in the mouth, and about one or two on the hands and face. It just started to fever, and has been receiving intravenous fluids for three days. The fever has subsided. How should I treat the blisters in the mouth if the diagnosis is hand, foot, and mouth disease?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, the baby has blisters in the mouth and also on the hands, with a recurrence of fever. This is likely caused by hand, foot, and mouth disease. Please pay close attention and carefully monitor the baby's condition. Encourage the baby to drink more water. This condition generally requires about a week of medication for treatment, and hand, foot, and mouth disease can have a significant impact on children. It is recommended that parents take the child to a specialized clinic for follow-up treatment and follow the doctor's guidance for treatment. In daily life, it is okay to give the child some juice, which is beneficial for digestion and vitamin intake, and can help prevent stomach issues. We hope the child can recover as soon as possible!
