Question
My child has been very disobedient lately, crying and fussing constantly. When we checked them, there was no result. I want to know how severe Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease is?
Answer
Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease is a viral illness that is typically treated with antiviral medication. If your child does not show signs of infection, there’s no need for intravenous fluids. However, if your child experiences symptoms like a low fever or respiratory infection, symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication can be used. The specific treatment should be determined based on your child’s condition, and if the situation is severe, it’s recommended to seek medical attention promptly.
