Answer
Your baby’s condition is considered to be herpangina, a common pediatric disease often caused by Coxsackie virus infection when the body’s resistance is reduced after exposure to cold. Symptoms include oral vesicles, fever, and ulcers. It is recommended to have a thorough check-up at the hospital, drink plenty of water, and apply oral ulcer powder externally to facilitate the fading of the vesicles. During this period, pay attention to your baby’s cold prevention, adjust clothing according to weather changes, and avoid spicy and irritating food to prevent your baby from catching a cold.
