Question
What are the symptoms of hand, foot, and mouth disease in infants?
Answer
Hand, foot, and mouth disease in infants can easily occur, with a drop in body temperature accompanied by the recurrence of blisters on the palms and soles of the hands and feet. The mouth may also show signs of ulcers. Oral antiviral medication can be taken for treatment, and intravenous fluid therapy should be used to replenish the body’s fluids. Since body temperature drops, it is easy for water to evaporate too quickly, leading to dehydration.
