Patient's question:
The child had many small blisters on their hands, feet, and mouth recently. I initially thought it might be hand, foot, and mouth disease, but hand, foot, and mouth disease doesn't cause fever or blisters on the hands—what's going on? Are these symptoms consistent with hand, foot, and mouth disease? Should I take the child to the hospital for a check-up? Are there any medications to take first? Besides diet, what else should I pay attention to?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, the baby's condition is quite normal. Some patients with hand, foot, and mouth disease do not have fever, and generally have mild symptoms. If there is repeated high fever that does not subside, it is necessary to consider the possibility of a severe condition and seek timely treatment. Currently, the baby can take symptomatic medication. The baby's diet should be light and hygienic, and frequent hand washing is necessary to prevent contact with others.
