Question
A two-year-old child has developed blisters-like things on their hand. After hospital diagnosis, it’s not hand, foot, and mouth disease, and medication treatment has shown limited effectiveness. Both parents have also experienced similar symptoms. What is the cause and what is the appropriate treatment?
Answer
Based on the description, the child’s hands have developed many bumps accompanied by itching, which may be due to eczema. Treatment suggestions include using relevant medications and considering possible skin issues caused by deficiency in Qi and blood, suggesting the use of herbs to replenish Qi and blood, expel wind, and nourish the blood. Additionally, it is recommended to follow a low-sodium, low-fat diet, avoid wind-cold conditions, and avoid overexertion.
