Herpes is the most prevalent viral infectious skin disease.

The elderly and people with chronic wasting diseases are more susceptible to shingles and have more severe illness once they are infected.

Why does my baby have herpes in his throat?

The baby has herpes in his throat, and the clinical characteristics are sudden high fever accompanied by sore throat, headache, anorexia, and often pain in the neck, abdomen and limbs. Vomiting and convulsions often occur in infants. Within 2 days of onset, a small number (rarely more than 12) of small (1-2 mm in diameter) gray-white blisters surrounded by a red halo appear on the oral mucosa. They are more common in the front part of the tonsils, but can also be located on the soft palate, tonsils, uvula, tongue, etc.

If your baby has herpes in his throat, you should consider herpetic pharyngitis, which is a disease caused by enterovirus and characterized by fever and herpetic ulcers in the pharyngeal isthmus. It is common in children aged 1 to 5 years. The general course of the disease is 4 to 6 days. May recur. There are two main reasons for this.

On the one hand, it is due to the hot weather and poor indoor air circulation, which causes bacteria in the air to enter the children's respiratory tract.

On the other hand, people use air conditioners in large quantities and set the temperature too low, which makes it unbearable for children, causing heat colds and leading to viral infections.

The treatment of herpetic pharyngitis often adopts a combination of Chinese and Western medicine, with Chinese medicine as the main treatment. You can choose some medicines that clear heat, detoxify and relieve sore throat, such as Isatis root granules. Decoctions often use medicines that clear heat and detoxify, such as honeysuckle, forsythia, dandelion, mint, gypsum, bamboo leaves, and rehmannia. Children with more serious conditions can receive intravenous drip of Yanhuning and Qingkailing injection.
