Question

My son is suspected of having hand, foot, and mouth disease but has not developed a fever. I would like to inquire about the severity of the condition.

Answer

Hand, foot, and mouth disease without fever is generally not severe, but it still requires treatment. It is recommended to use oral antiviral medications, and pay attention to skin hygiene, change clothes frequently, and drink plenty of water. Monitor the condition closely, as the symptoms usually improve gradually after treatment.
