Question

What should I do if my baby has a fever, mouth ulcers, and blisters on hands and feet?

Answer

Your baby’s condition may be hand, foot, and mouth disease. Mild cases usually heal on their own within 7-10 days, but severe cases can lead to complications, so it’s advisable to seek active treatment. You can use ribavirin and antiviral oral liquid for antiviral treatment and consider taking cefixime. I hope these suggestions are helpful to you, and wish your baby a quick recovery.
