Patient's question:
My son had a fever of 38.8 degrees on the 30th and used a fever reducer to bring it down. On the 1st, he had another fever and took medicine again to lower it. He went to the hospital for a urine test and found red spots on his hands and feet, as well as in his gums. The doctor prescribed Ribavirin effervescent tablets, Keliujian, and Lanqin oral liquid. Now he doesn't have a fever anymore, and the red spots in his mouth have also decreased. He can even eat dinner now. If my son is diagnosed with hand, foot, and mouth disease, how should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
Based on your child's condition, it may be a symptom caused by a viral infection. It is recommended that you take Cefixime dispersible tablets, Amoxicillin-clavulanate potassium, and Ganciclovir capsules for treatment. Hand, foot, and mouth disease has a significant impact on children. Once a mom notices her child's symptoms, she should promptly take them to a regular hospital for diagnosis. At the same time, pay close attention to the child's diet, and it is advisable to have a proper diet and avoid spicy foods that may affect health. We hope the child can receive effective treatment and recover quickly!
