Patient's question:
Baby has many small blisters on their hands, and they keep getting more, but only on the palms, not elsewhere, and there are no other adverse reactions. What are the symptoms of hand, foot, and mouth disease?Doctor's answer:
The blisters on the child's hand resemble hand, foot, and mouth disease. Does the child have a fever? Are there blisters in the mouth, face, or buttocks? It is recommended to take the child to the pediatric department of the hospital for a follow-up examination. The doctor can make a definitive diagnosis through a detailed examination and, if necessary, test for enterovirus. If the child has no other symptoms, it is advisable to continue monitoring closely and measure the temperature frequently. If the child has a fever, antiviral oral liquid should be administered, and if the temperature is above 38.5°C, temporary use of ibuprofen for fever reduction is recommended.
