Question

Is the dry vomiting a severe symptom of hand, foot, and mouth disease reappearing?

Answer

Dry vomiting during hand, foot, and mouth disease is usually due to fever-induced increased body immunity, which affects gastrointestinal function, leading to symptoms such as indigestion, vomiting, and decreased appetite. These symptoms typically resolve on their own as the fever subsides and the hand, foot, and mouth disease heals. It is recommended to treat the hand, foot, and mouth disease only and not to use medication specifically for gastrointestinal issues.
