Question
My child has been running a fever, and it’s because of hand, foot, and mouth disease. How should I handle the recurring fever?
Answer
Hello, if a child has hand, foot, and mouth disease and experiences a recurrence of fever, it’s recommended to ensure they are well-hydrated and to use antiviral medications based on the symptoms, along with fever-reducing medication for symptom relief. After a period of continued treatment, the condition should improve. Please note to adjust the treatment according to the child’s symptoms and to undergo further examination and treatment.
