Patient's question:
The child has developed a few blisters on their hands and feet. The hospital conducted a thorough examination and diagnosed it as hand, foot, and mouth disease. I would like to ask if there is a half-price treatment for hand, foot, and mouth disease?Doctor's answer:
Hand, foot, and mouth disease is not treated at half price. In the early stage, it can have mild upper respiratory symptoms. It is more common in summer. The symptoms of hand, foot, and mouth disease appear relatively quickly, with low fever, blisters the size of rice grains in the mouth, and significant pain. The blisters are round or oval-shaped, flat protrusions with cloudy fluid inside, with their long axis aligned with the skin lines. It is recommended to feed the baby light liquid or semi-liquid food, and avoid cold, spicy, salty, and other irritating foods. The sores on the hands, feet, and mouth may not all reappear in the same patient. Blisters and rashes usually disappear within a week.
