Hello: Hand, foot, and mouth disease is an infectious disease caused by enteroviruses, which can lead to blisters on the hands, feet, and mouth and accompanied by fever. If there are no complications, it usually improves within about 7 days. This condition is generally treated with antiviral and symptomatic therapies, such as taking antiviral medications like ribavirin and Pudilan, using or spray for the mouth, and applying calamine lotion and acyclovir ointment to blisters on the hands and feet. If the fever is below 38.5°C, you can give them some fever-reducing medication like ibuprofen suspension. If the temperature is higher, physical cooling methods can be used.
