Patient's question:
The baby got hand, foot, and mouth disease, and after recovering, they have a slight fever of 37 degrees. Yesterday, they took fever-reducing medicine. Today, when touched, the baby's whole body feels hot, but the forehead is not warm.Doctor's answer:
Hand, foot, and mouth disease is characterized by recurrent blisters on the hands, feet, and mouth, with mild and brief symptoms, commonly seen in children. You can measure the child's temperature; if the armpit temperature is below 38.5°C, you can use physical cooling methods and encourage the child to drink more water and get more rest. Hand, foot, and mouth disease poses significant harm to children. Once a mom notices her child's symptoms, she should promptly take them to a regular hospital for diagnosis. At the same time, she should pay close attention to the child's care. It is recommended to follow a proper diet and avoid spicy or irritating foods. We hope the child can receive symptomatic treatment and recover quickly!
