Patient's question:
My nephew's kindergarten has some children suffering from hand, foot, and mouth disease. The day before yesterday, my nephew came home from school with a slight fever and a cough. I gave him fever-reducing medicine, but his condition didn't improve. Today, I noticed a few small pimples on his hands, but no other symptoms. Hello doctor, how did my child get hand, foot, and mouth disease? His mental state has been good.Doctor's answer:
The child has a slight fever and some acne on their hands. This situation could be related to hand, foot, and mouth disease. Although the symptoms are mild, it's best to have the child checked at the hospital first. If it is confirmed to be hand, foot, and mouth disease, antiviral medication can be used for treatment. During this period, proper care should also be paid attention to, such as a light diet, drinking more water, and quickly stabilizing the child's symptoms. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
