Question
Two days ago, after my child received the Hand, Foot, and Mouth vaccine, they began to experience vomiting and diarrhea at 6:30 PM the same day. They had diarrhea five times throughout the night. By 6 AM the next morning, they had a fever symptom. Yesterday, their body temperature was around 38.5 degrees Celsius. Today, their body temperature has returned to normal, but they still have diarrhea. What could be the reason for the diarrhea after receiving the Hand, Foot, and Mouth vaccine?
Answer
After receiving the Hand, Foot, and Mouth vaccine, children may experience diarrhea, vomiting, and fever symptoms, which are often due to dyspepsia. It is advisable to go to the hospital for a systematic examination to determine the exact cause and receive timely treatment. If diagnosed with dyspepsia, consider giving Lactobacillus granules and probiotic granules. Also, ensure adequate hydration and electrolyte replenishment. Parents should closely monitor their child’s condition changes and do their best to assist them in receiving appropriate treatment.
