Treatment of Tomato Flu
Treatment of Tomato Flu Tomato flu is a self-limiting disease. There is no special treatment required for tomato fever. The symptoms usually subside in about ten days. The treatment generally given is supportive. Medicines like paracetamol reduce fever, pain, and general discomfort. Affected individuals must increase their fluid intake so that the body remains hydrated. Limiting salty and spicy food helps in preventing mouth soreness. Warm saline gargles help with mouth blisters. Avoid scratching or rubbing on the blisters and burst them. Instead, allow the blisters to reduce on their own. Skin irritation can be relieved by a skin-soothing lotion. Bathing in warm water would also relieve skin irritation. Proper rest till the symptoms of tomato flu subside, and blisters heal correctly without getting further infected. Continuous monitoring is required to understand the evolution of the disease and the need for other healthcare interventions.
