Question
I noticed that my child’s palms, soles, and buttocks have developed blisters again, but they are not feverish and are in good spirits. They had a good appetite at noon. What should I do if my child has had hand, foot, and mouth disease with fever for two days?
Answer
Active treatment is required for your baby’s hand, foot, and mouth disease. Since there is no fever now, it indicates that the condition is generally stable. However, you should still closely monitor their temperature changes and provide appropriate medication when blisters appear. It is recommended to give ribavirin and pidotimod oral solution, and ensure your child drinks plenty of water. Generally, recovery can be expected within about a week.
