Question
What are the treatment methods for hand, foot, and mouth disease?
Answer
The treatment methods for hand, foot, and mouth disease include using the “Yin Chiao San” formula for patients with high fever that persists and dense rashes on the mouth, hands, buttocks, and limbs. For patients with complications such as persistent high fever and frequent coughing with difficulty breathing, the “Jing Wen Bai Du Yin” formula can be used. During the recovery period of the disease, the “Shashen Maidong Soup” formula can be used with raw rehmannia and lu gen to nourish yin and moisten the throat. For children with blisters in the mouth, options include applying Shuanghuang San, Bingpeng San, or Xilai San to the affected area; for severe hand and foot blisters, use Ruyi Jinhua San or Qingdai San for external application.
