Hand, foot, and mouth disease, is it difficult to treat?

Patient's question:

Is hand, foot, and mouth disease difficult to treat?

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, hand, foot, and mouth disease is mostly caused by infection with enteroviruses, leading to blisters and pus on the oral mucosa, accompanied by fever, poor appetite, and fatigue. Generally, mild hand, foot, and mouth disease is a self-limiting illness, and symptomatic treatment is sufficient for recovery. However, for severe hand, foot, and mouth disease, early hospitalization and treatment are necessary, as otherwise it may lead to complications such as pulmonary hemorrhage. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery!
