Patient's question:
Baby hand, foot, and mouth disease, slightly high temperature, can it cool down quickly? How to treat baby hand, foot, and mouth disease with slightly high temperature?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, hand, foot, and mouth disease is mainly caused by enterovirus infection. It typically presents with oral ulcers, blisters on the hands, feet, buttocks, and sometimes fever. We recommend that you don't worry too much and take your child to the hospital for follow-up treatment in a timely manner. Medication and treatment should be administered based on the doctor's screening advice. If the temperature is below 38.5°C, oral antipyretics should be taken to reduce fever, along with physical cooling methods such as ice packs and warm baths. Hand, foot, and mouth disease can be quite harmful to children, so we suggest that family members take their child to a specialized hospital for follow-up treatment under the guidance of a doctor. In daily life, it is advisable to give the child some juice, which is beneficial for digestion and vitamin intake, helping to prevent stomach upset. We hope your child can recover as soon as possible!
