Is a mouth blister a symptom of hand, foot, and mouth disease?

Patient's question:

I noticed water bubbles in my mouth and drooling, loss of appetite. They said it's an early symptom of hand, foot, and mouth disease. I got a blood test, and the doctor looked at the results and said "the indicators are not high" and only gave me medicine. Is it hand, foot, and mouth disease?

Doctor's answer:

Hand, foot, and mouth disease is a viral infectious disease, and blisters outside the lips are also one of the symptoms of hand, foot, and mouth disease. There is no need to go to the hospital for re-examination at the moment. Currently, it is necessary to focus on oral medication treatment. Strictly prohibit eating irritants such as coriander, fish, shrimp, etc., to prevent bowel movements from spicy and irritating foods. Drink more water and eat more vegetables and fruits. Hand, foot, and mouth disease has a significant impact on children. It is recommended that family members take the child to a specialized hospital for re-examination and treatment under the guidance of a doctor. In daily life, it is acceptable to give the child some juice, which is beneficial for digesting vitamins and preventing stomach problems. We hope the child can recover as soon as possible!
