What should I do if I have hand, foot, and mouth disease and a fever?

Patient's question:

Always uncomfortable, feeling bad, can't sleep. What should I do if I have a fever after recovering from hand, foot, and mouth disease?

Doctor's answer:

Hand, foot, and mouth disease is a viral infection. During this period, there may be symptoms of fever. If the temperature is below 38.5 degrees, you can take fever-reducing medication, such as ibuprofen granules. Timely antiviral and anti-inflammatory treatment should be administered. If the low-grade fever is particularly severe, it is important to seek medical attention promptly for symptomatic treatment. During this period, it is advisable to follow a light diet and avoid consuming excessively greasy foods. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery!
