Patient's question:
Doctor, I would like to consult if these symptoms could be hand, foot, and mouth disease. The child is four years old now, with low-grade fever that won't go away, blisters on the feet, buttocks, and throat. The local doctor said it might be hand, foot, and mouth disease. The child is generally quite hygienic, so I wanted to consult about this situation.Doctor's answer:
According to your description, the baby's condition is considered to be hand, foot, and mouth disease. The main clinical manifestations of hand, foot, and mouth disease are rashes on the bones, muscles, and oral and buttock areas, accompanied by fever or no fever. If high fever persists or symptoms such as convulsions appear, there is a need to be cautious of the possibility of severe illness. Closely monitor the baby's mental state, use physical cooling methods, drink plenty of water, and avoid crowded places.
