Question

What should I pay attention to if my child has hand, foot, and mouth disease?

Answer

There are small red blisters on the child’s body, more on the hands, and they don’t eat dinner much but drink some milk. Bowel movements are normal, they rest normally, and there’s no significant weight change. I noticed it yesterday morning; they had been coughing a few days ago. Previous treatment and effectiveness: I went to the children’s hospital two days ago and got medication. After taking the medicine for a day, the child’s mouth hurts and they don’t want to eat. What should I feed them? What should I be aware of after they recover? What should I be aware of now?
