Question
A 2-year-old child has developed blisters inside the mouth but has not shown a fever. The child is in good spirits and eating normally. The parents have treated the child with purple medicine water, Jinqiao granules, and ribavirin granules on the evening of May 26th. The parents are concerned about the severity of the child’s condition and how to further treat it.
Answer
Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease is usually caused by various enteroviruses, with symptoms primarily including small blisters on the hands, feet, and mouth. In most cases, if there is no fever, the condition is typically not severe and can recover spontaneously within seven to ten days. It is recommended to take vitamin B complex granules and use ribavirin spray to spray inside the mouth. Parents should closely monitor their child’s symptoms and seek professional medical assistance when necessary, avoiding self-medication with unverified drugs.
