What medicine should be sprayed in the mouth for hand, foot and mouth disease?

It is almost the peak season for baby hand, foot and mouth disease. Parents must be careful. The early stage of hand, foot and mouth disease is ulcers in the baby's mouth. Many parents tend to treat the baby's mouth ulcers as ordinary inflammation to avoid delaying the disease. Generally, when babies suffer from hand, foot and mouth disease, most of them first appear from the baby's mouth to the outside, such as lips, cheeks, tongue, etc. Once discovered, seek medical attention as soon as possible to ensure early detection and early treatment. Babies with hand, foot and mouth disease can be treated with Fenmu oral antibacterial spray.

Hand, foot and mouth disease is a common infectious disease caused by a variety of human enteroviruses, mainly affecting infants and young children. Most children have mild symptoms, with fever and rash or herpes on the hands, feet, mouth and other parts of the body as the main features. A small number of children may develop damage to the central nervous system and respiratory system, leading to aseptic meningitis, encephalitis, acute flaccid paralysis, neurogenic pulmonary edema and myocarditis. Some seriously ill children may progress rapidly and are prone to death.

1. During the illness, the child's care should be strengthened and oral hygiene should be maintained. You can rinse your mouth with saline or warm water before and after eating. It is better to eat liquid or semi-liquid food without irritation. 2. You can apply vitamin B2 powder directly to the area of oral erosion, or apply cod liver oil, or take vitamin B2 and vitamin C orally, supplemented by ultrasonic nebulization inhalation to relieve pain and promote early healing of erosion. 3. Children should wash their hands with soap or hand sanitizer before meals, after defecation and after going out. Do not let children drink raw water or eat raw or cold food, and avoid contact with sick children. 4. Caregivers must wash their hands before contacting children, changing diapers for children, and after handling feces, and dispose of waste properly. 5. During the epidemic period, it is not advisable to bring children to public places where people gather and air circulation is poor. Pay attention to maintaining a clean home environment, ventilate the room frequently, and dry clothes and quilts frequently.

The general symptoms of hand, foot and mouth disease are as follows: (1) Acute onset, with an incubation period of 3-5 days, and prodromal symptoms such as low-grade fever, general malaise, and abdominal pain. Scattered painful, millet- to mung-bean-sized blisters appear on the oral mucosa, and maculopapules and herpes appear on the hands and feet. Initially, they are maculopapules, which later turn into herpes. They are round or oval, about 3-7 mm in size, like the size of a grain of rice, smaller than the chickenpox rash, harder in texture, with a red halo around it, and less fluid in the blisters. Dot-like or flaky erosions can be seen under the grayish-white membrane. After the rash subsides, no scars or pigmentation are left. If there is a secondary infection, the skin damage will often be aggravated. (2) In addition to the hands, feet and mouth, herpes can also be seen on the buttocks and near the anus, and occasionally on the trunk and limbs. They dry up and disappear after a few days. The rash is not itchy and painful. (3) Some children may develop generalized papules and blisters, accompanied by aseptic meningitis, encephalitis, myocarditis, etc. It may be accompanied by symptoms such as cough, runny nose, loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, and headache. (4) Some cases only present with rash or herpetic pharyngitis. The whole course of the disease is about 5-10 days. Most cases can heal themselves with a good prognosis and no sequelae.
