Patient's question:
Doctor, hello. My daughter is eight years old. Recently, she went to school and accidentally contracted hand, foot, and mouth disease. She is now recovering at home, but my daughter says her head hurts. Doctor, how should we treat the recurring headache with hand, foot, and mouth disease?Doctor's answer:
If it's not hot, and the abdominal pain is not persistent, it could be severe stomach pain. Pay attention to keeping your abdomen warm. You can use a hot pack to apply cold to your stomach, drink more hot water, and pay attention to your diet. Many medications can be taken orally to regulate gastrointestinal function. The treatment for hand, foot, and mouth disease mainly involves antiviral medications. After taking the medication, it is recommended to go to the hospital for follow-up checks at irregular intervals. In addition to medication, household furniture, children's clothes, and toys should also be disinfected to prevent re-infection with hand, foot, and mouth disease.
