Patient's question:
In 2016, my daughter was two years and three months old. Since the autumn, she has been getting red spots on her buttocks and sometimes red blisters in her mouth! It has been about two or three months. When she saw a doctor, some said it was hand, foot, and mouth disease, while others said it was a skin allergy! She took some medicine, but it didn't help. Before she was seven months old, she had hand, foot, and mouth disease! Please reply, thank you.Doctor's answer:
According to your description, the baby has developed herpes, which is also a viral infection. It may be caused by the child playing and not maintaining cleanliness and hygiene. The condition has persisted for 3 months without being identified as hand, foot, and mouth disease. It is recommended that you visit a pediatrician at a formal hospital for further examination and treatment. Rest more, drink plenty of water, and eat more vegetables, fruits, and rough fiber foods. You can apply calamine lotion to the buttocks and take a heat-clearing and detoxifying oral liquid three times a day, with 5 milliliters each time.
