Question

My child has a fever and a blister on the little finger (no blisters on the palm of the hand or soles of the feet), could it be Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease?

Answer

Based on the description, this condition may be a regional viral herpes, but Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease cannot be ruled out. It is recommended to drink plenty of water, maintain local hygiene, seek medical attention promptly for diagnosis, and receive symptomatic treatment. Avoid eating spicy food. If diagnosed with Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease, treatment should be started immediately and self-medication with unknown drugs should be avoided. Parents should closely monitor the condition and assist their children in receiving timely treatment.
