Patient's question:
A few days ago, I just recovered from hand, foot, and mouth disease. Now my neck is red and hot. I just used a fever-reducing, but it's still 38.5 degrees. How should I treat a recurrence of hand, foot, and mouth disease?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, your child is one year old and has just recovered from hand, foot, and mouth disease. Currently, they have a fever of 38.5 degrees Celsius. It's a pleasure to assist you.After using the fever-reducing suppository, your child's temperature remains at 38.5 degrees Celsius. We recommend drinking more water and using lukewarm water to bathe the body. If the temperature is still above 38.5 degrees Celsius after one hour, you can use Tylenol to reduce the fever.
Since your child has been affected by hand, foot, and mouth disease, the mother must take the child to the hospital for immediate medical treatment to prevent the use of over-the-counter medications. Proper medication 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 illness.
