Question

What should I do if my baby has hand, foot, and mouth disease with a fever for two days?

Answer

If the baby has a fever, it may be related to the antipyretic medication. An eight-month-old baby who has contracted hand, foot, and mouth disease may experience severe symptoms again. It is advisable to visit the hospital for a re-examination, including blood tests and blood sugar levels, and to closely monitor the baby’s mental state, looking out for any signs of convulsions. Hand, foot, and mouth disease can have serious consequences for children. Parents should immediately take their child to a regular hospital for diagnosis and treatment upon discovering any related symptoms. They should also pay attention to their child’s diet, suggesting a balanced diet in daily life. It is hoped that the child will receive appropriate treatment and recover.
