Patient's question:
My relative's child was diagnosed with hand, foot, and mouth disease a few days ago. They just came out of the hospital, but I'm afraid to let them come into contact with the child. What are the possible complications of hand, foot, and mouth disease?Doctor's answer:
Hand, foot, and mouth disease is generally more likely to occur during the spring and autumn seasons. Its complications refer to the many diseases caused by severe hand, foot, and mouth disease. In addition to rash on the palms, soles, and mouth, it can also cause neurological diseases in some children, such as recurrent high fever seizures and clinical manifestations of epilepsy. If it leads to respiratory diseases, it can manifest as pneumonia, such as fever, cough, sputum production, and shortness of breath.
