Patient's question:
Your child has contracted hand, foot, and mouth disease. I went to the hospital, but the doctor wasn't there, so the nurse gave the child an IV drip and then I went home. Now the baby has a high fever and is having severe fits. I don't know what to do!Doctor's answer:
According to your description, hand, foot, and mouth disease is an infectious disease caused by enterovirus, and the main treatment principle is symptomatic treatment. Antiviral drugs, heat-clearing and detoxifying traditional Chinese herbal medicines, and vitamins B and C can be taken. Patients with complications can receive intramuscular injection of immune globulin. The above suggestions are for the question "What should I do if my child gets hand, foot, and mouth disease?" and hope it helps you. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery!
