Question

Will hand, foot, and mouth disease recur after a week in the hospital?

Answer

After a week in the hospital with hand, foot, and mouth disease, a baby may still experience a recurrence due to exposure to cold or catching a cold. In such cases, parents should ensure their child drinks plenty of water, maintains warmth, and seek medical attention promptly if their child’s temperature continues to rise. During treatment, parents should closely monitor their child’s condition and provide appropriate care and treatment as advised by the doctor.
