Causes of Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease and Red Dots on the Inner Thigh

Question

What could be the cause of red dots appearing on both sides of the inner thigh?

Answer

Hello, red dots appearing on the inner thigh may be a symptom of eczema. Eczema is an allergic disease that usually requires timely diagnosis and treatment. It is recommended to take antihistamines, vitamin C, and Fangfeng Tongsheng pills orally, and apply a compounded ketoconazole ointment topically. At the same time, avoid spicy foods and eat more fresh vegetables and fruits to promote recovery. Please note that this is not hand, foot, and mouth disease; the causes of hand, foot, and mouth disease are diverse. If a child is diagnosed with hand, foot, and mouth disease, parents should cooperate with the doctor for immediate treatment and pay attention to the child’s dietary habits, avoiding picky eating and preferences.
