Question

A few days ago, my daughter had a fever, mouth pain, loss of appetite, and blisters in her mouth. She also developed many bumps on her hands and feet. We went to the hospital for a check-up. The doctor said she has Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease. Doctor, is Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease easy to treat? Are there any good effective drugs that can treat it quickly?

Answer

Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease is a common infectious disease. Once the cause is identified, treatment based on symptoms under the guidance of a clinical doctor can be effective. Currently, there is no special effective medicine available; it is all symptomatic treatment. The specific treatment time varies from person to person, depending on individual constitution. It’s important to drink plenty of water, have a light diet, and avoid crowded places.
