Why is the fever still low when hand, foot, and mouth disease patients receive intravenous drips?

Patient's question:

I know that hand, foot, and mouth disease was discovered during the 2008 Wenchuan Earthquake. Later, I didn't believe my own child could catch it, but it did indeed get it. I have been in the hospital for several days getting IV drips, and he is still running a high fever. I want to know what to do?

Doctor's answer:

Considering the recurrence of a viral infection, hand, foot, and mouth disease has reappeared. If there is a recurrence of recurrent fever and convulsive symptoms, it is necessary to rule out meningitis. Antiviral drugs should be used in combination, and antipyretic drugs should be administered. There is a risk of developing viral pneumonia or viral myocarditis, so energy mixtures should be used in combination to treat the condition, and drugs that can reduce resistance should also be used.
