Question
If a child has an enlarged liver, mouth sores, and swollen lymph nodes, what could be the cause? What are the differences between EBV and hand, foot, and mouth disease?
Answer
Your child may have contracted a virus, and it is recommended to undergo antiviral treatment to alleviate symptoms. Since viral infections can lead to a decrease in immunity, using anti-inflammatory medications is also necessary. Please closely monitor your child’s condition and seek medical attention promptly to avoid the worsening of the illness.
