Is my child suffering from hand, foot, and mouth disease?

Patient's question:

Mainly, it looks like there are some blisters on the left corner of the mouth due to indigestion. About the previous treatment and its effectiveness: I have received injections for four days and taken medicine for one day, but it was fine. However, after stopping, I started having fever. What kind of help I need: I want to know the reason behind it and how to treat it.

Doctor's answer:

Hello: According to what you said, just having blisters on the corners of the mouth cannot be diagnosed as hand, foot, and mouth disease. It might be viral herpes. Generally, hand, foot, and mouth disease involves rashes on both hands, feet, and the mouth. I suggest taking your child to the hospital for a check-up. You can give them some oral antiviral liquid, eat some fruits and vegetables appropriately, drink more boiled water, and maintain a positive mood. Wishing you a speedy recovery!
