Question

My four-and-a-half-year-old son has been suffering from hand, foot, and mouth disease for four days. Although he is not feverish, the oral blisters have not improved. I would like to inquire about treatment suggestions.

Answer

Based on the description, it is inferred to be a mild case of hand, foot, and mouth disease. Oral medications such as antiviral oral liquid and lozenge spray can be used for treatment. It is recommended to seek medical attention promptly, follow the doctor’s instructions for medication, and provide sufficient care and attention to the child. Generally, the disease can be healed within 5-7 days. Avoid using unknown medications on your own to prevent affecting the treatment effect.
