Question
What precautions should be taken for hand, foot, and mouth disease?
Answer
Hand, foot, and mouth disease usually manifests as red rashes on the hands, feet, and buttocks, with ulcers in the mouth. It is recommended to actively use intravenous antiviral drugs during treatment, drink plenty of water, and consume more vegetables, especially wild greens that have a cooling and detoxifying effect. Avoid spicy and stimulating foods, as well as fish, shrimp, coriander, and other foods that are prone to causing illness. Rinse the mouth with physiological saline water or warm water before and after eating. Fluids and semi-liquid foods are preferable.
