Will hand, foot, and mouth disease recur during treatment?

Patient's question:

Hand, foot, and mouth disease, will it continue to grow during treatment? How long will it take for the whole body to recover? It grows in pieces. I ask, will hand, foot, and mouth disease recur during treatment?

Doctor's answer:

According to the situation you described, if it is hand, foot, and mouth disease, it may recur after a period of time, but it will definitely not if the virus is completely controlled. In such cases, the general condition usually improves completely within about a week. Virus infection is a self-limiting disease, generally lasting for about a week. It is recommended to actively use antiviral medications, such as ribavirin or oseltamivir granules.
Since the child is threatened by hand, foot, and mouth disease, parents must take the child to see a doctor immediately for treatment to avoid various misunderstandings. Timely symptomatic treatment is essential. For parents, it is important to closely monitor the child's condition and do their best to help the child receive timely treatment for the disease.
