Question
What are the stages and types of hand, foot, and mouth disease?
Answer
Most children with hand, foot, and mouth disease experience mild symptoms and have no issues after receiving active treatment. However, a very small number of children may develop severe complications. Severe cases can be divided into four stages: the first stage is the rash phase, the second stage is the nervous system affected phase, the third stage is the pre-cardiac failure phase, and the fourth stage is the cardio-pulmonary failure phase. The specific types require detailed examination results for prediction. It is still best to follow professional medical advice and actively adhere to standardized treatment.
