Patient's question:
My child is three years old this year. A while ago, I took her for a thorough check-up and found that she had hand, foot, and mouth disease. I just wanted to ask if having hand, foot, and mouth disease is painful?Doctor's answer:
According to the baby's condition, hand, foot, and mouth disease is an infectious disease, which usually causes vesicular-like rashes to reappear on the palms, soles, mouth, and buttocks. If the blisters reappear in the mouth, the pain symptoms will reappear again. If they reappear on the palms, soles, and buttocks, they generally do not cause pain symptoms again, but there may be pain symptoms when they are contagious again. Hand, foot, and mouth disease generally requires antiviral treatment, and it is important to drink more water and eat a light diet.
