Share Psak Sick Baby Hands Foot Mouth First Time

🧸 Hand Foot Mouth

A real experience to share for parents to be vigilant and cope with.

A few days before the onset, you don't look bright, you think you're tired from training, you don't sleep during the day, but that's actually the warning sign of an outbreak of hand, foot, mouth disease.

📌 Day 4

Friday evening, the baby is bent, restless, waking up in the middle of the night many times, measuring a normal fever, examining the body has not found anything.

Saturday morning, you said, "Mom, it hurts your mouth."

Looking at the red sores in the mouth, broken tongue, small tubercles on the hands and wrists.

Take it to the doctor. While waiting to see the doctor, the blister begins to spread to the arms, feet and buttocks.

The doctor confirmed the disease "hands, feet, mouth."

🗓️ Timeline symptoms.

• Days 1-3: fatigue, bent, little to eat, but still no symptoms

• Day 4: Start of mouth ulcer, blister on hands, feet, buttocks

• Day 5: Peak symptoms. Can't eat at all. Needs anesthetic + cold nectar.

• Day 6: Beginning to sleep, but still sore mouth. Eat only red water.

• Day 7: Better. Dry blister. Start playing. Little talk.

• Day 8: Brighter. Eat more.

A weight ball has lost 2 kg from eating for days, must always be careful about dehydration.

💉 Severe strains vaccine (EV71)

• Prevent strains that are often serious

• Injections available from 6 months old to 5 years old

• Injection 2 needles 1 month apart

• Not all strains of the virus are covered.

• The pediatrician should be consulted before making a decision.

Although this case does not have a high fever or a lot of blisters, the ulcer in the mouth can not eat anything for many days, which for parents... this is heavy enough. 🧡

Please send encouragement to all houses that have to deal with

Don't forget to take care of yourself, because if your parents fall, they can get infected.

And if anyone is deciding on the EV71 vaccine, consult a doctor in advance. It's another way to reduce the risk of the disease.

Best wishes. ❤️

May all children be strong and immune.
