Patient's question:
The palm looks like hand, foot, and mouth disease. Red small spots have reappeared on the soles, buttocks, inner thighs, knees, and elbows (no fever, good spirits). What medicine should I use, and how should I treat it specifically? Thank youDoctor's answer:
Hand, foot, and mouth disease is caused by a viral infection and is a self-limiting illness. Mild cases will usually recover within about a week without treatment. Treatment is based on antiviral therapy. Lamb Horn Granules and Antiviral Oral Liquid are both antiviral medications, and only one should be taken. Pay attention to indoor hygiene, ensure proper ventilation, and do not take children into crowded places or let them play with other children. Monitor the child's temperature at all times to check for complications. For mild symptoms, medication for five days is usually sufficient. Avoid raw foods and drink hot water. Change all the clothes the child has worn and sterilize them before wearing them again. Try to minimize the number of strangers coming to your home. Additionally, adults should change their outerwear immediately after coming home. That's pretty much it!
