Patient's question:
At half a year after hand, foot, and mouth disease, I've had low-grade fever. Today is the sixth day. The ulcers have healed, and the blisters have turned swollen and dry. Medications include Ribavirin, Head Pack, Vitamin C, Mouth Deputy Qingkailing, Kangfuxin Liquid, and Shibaoli Tong tablets. (Some typos can be seen in the laundry list). What kind of help do I need: Please explain why I still have low-grade fever even while taking Qingkailing.Doctor's answer:
Hand, foot, and mouth disease is caused by enteroviruses and is most common in preschool children. Complete recovery from the disease requires a certain amount of time, and it is absolutely essential not to rush the process. It is recommended to focus on hospital treatment, where the child can take heat-clearing, detoxifying, and antiviral medications. Hand, foot, and mouth disease poses significant harm to children, so it is advised that family members take the child to a specialized clinic for follow-up treatment and seek medical guidance for care. In daily life, it is beneficial to give the child some juice, which aids digestion and vitamin absorption, helping to prevent stomach issues. We hope the child can recover as soon as possible!
