This is herpes stomatitis. Generally, it starts with a viral infection, and later it may develop into a bacterial infection. It is recommended that you go to the hospital for a blood test to check the infection status and see if additional anti-inflammatory medication is needed. The child is troubled by hand, foot, and mouth disease, so 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 observe any changes in the child's symptoms and do their best to help the child receive timely treatment for the disease.
