Question
My child is 6 years old. They had a fever of 39 degrees seven days ago, which subsided after two days. Now they are saying their throat hurts and it appears red with a small blister. There are no blisters on their hands and feet. Could this be hand, foot, and mouth disease?
Answer
Based on your description, it seems to be hand, foot, and mouth disease. If possible, it is recommended to visit the hospital as soon as possible for a doctor’s examination. If diagnosed with hand, foot, and mouth disease, early treatment is crucial as it can cause significant harm to the child. Once parents notice any symptoms in their child, they should immediately take them to a regular hospital for diagnosis. It is also important to pay close attention to the child’s care. It is suggested that daily nutrition should be balanced to ensure the child receives professional treatment and can recover!
