Question

There are blisters in the mouth and on the tongue, refusing to eat, just discharged from the hospital, do I still need to go to the hospital?

Answer

If there is no fever, you can first carefully observe. Hand, foot, and mouth disease is an infectious disease caused by enterovirus, which can be treated with antiviral drugs and cooling and detoxifying traditional Chinese medicine as well as vitamins B and C after diagnosis. Patients with complications can receive intramuscular injections of immunoglobulin. During the illness, it is important to enhance the care of the child and maintain good oral hygiene. Before and after defecation, you can wash the face with physiological saline or warm water. Foods should be non-irritating, such as liquids and semi-solids.
