Based on your simple description of the condition, this is not an issue of hand, foot, and mouth disease. However, it could also be another type of infection. It is recommended that you pay more attention to washing your face regularly. In addition to using antiviral medications, such as injections, if the child is troubled by hand, foot, and mouth disease, the family must take the child to see a doctor immediately for treatment to prevent the use of blind medication to alleviate symptoms. For parents, it is important to carefully observe changes in their child's symptoms and do their best to help the child receive timely treatment for the disease.
