Question
A nine-month-old child has contracted hand, foot, and mouth disease and is experiencing fever and diarrhea. What measures can parents take to alleviate these symptoms?
Answer
After a child is infected with hand, foot, and mouth disease and develops symptoms of fever and diarrhea, it is recommended that parents take the child to the hospital for observation and undergo blood and stool routine checks. They should also pay attention to any changes in rashes on the palms, soles, and mouth. If there are symptoms such as poor mental state or vomiting, further examination may be necessary. Symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication can be administered for fever.
