Patient's question:
My baby has already turned one year old. Yesterday, while playing with him, I noticed several small blisters on his hands. Recently, many people have been suffering from hand, foot, and mouth disease, and I'm very worried. I want to consult a doctor about whether a one-year-old baby with a few small blisters on their hands could have hand, foot, and mouth disease?Doctor's answer:
Simply based on this single clinical manifestation of the child, we are also unable to make a definitive diagnosis. It may also be caused by factors such as improper diet or water immersion. If the condition you mentioned, such as blisters, continues to increase and is accompanied by symptoms like fever in the child, then hand, foot, and mouth disease should be considered. Hand, foot, and mouth disease is caused by a viral infection. When necessary, it is essential to take the child to the hospital for blood tests and other careful examinations, and seek medical advice.
