Question
Two days ago, my nephew suddenly developed a fever, accompanied by several small red spots on his hands and feet, with more around the anal area. The hospital suspected it to be hand, foot, and mouth disease. The previous treatment situation and effectiveness: After two days of treatment, the condition did not worsen. I would like to obtain professional treatment knowledge and protective measures for hand, foot, and mouth disease.
Answer
Based on the situation you described, hand, foot, and mouth disease is often related to decreased immunity, vitamin deficiencies, and frequent contact with individuals who have hand, foot, and mouth disease. It is recommended that you rest more during this period, try to reduce staying up late, drink more water, and undergo routine blood tests. Under the guidance of a doctor, rationally apply antiviral medications for treatment. Normally, eat more fresh fruits and vegetables and ensure a balanced intake of nutrients. Especially for areas on the hands that have developed ulcers, avoid irritation.
