Question
My daughter is eight months old. Two days ago, she had a fever with blisters in her mouth, and we took her to the hospital. The doctor prescribed medication and said not to get vaccinated or be hospitalized. Over the past two days, her hands and feet have been covered with blisters. I don’t know what to do.
Answer
Based on the symptoms you described, your child may have a viral hand, foot, and mouth disease. If it’s mild, oral treatment can be administered. If your child’s body temperature exceeds and remains above 39°C, or if their mental state worsens, be vigilant about the possibility of severe hand, foot, and mouth disease. In such cases, immediate medical attention and hospitalization may be required. If your child refuses to eat, intravenous treatment may also be necessary. I hope my response is helpful to you.
