The Path to Recovery from Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease

Question

I have mouth ulcers and red rashes on my body. I received antiviral intravenous treatment yesterday. How can I promote the recovery from hand, foot, and mouth disease?

Answer

The treatment for hand, foot, and mouth disease typically involves the use of antibiotics and antiviral medications, with a combination of Acyclovir injections and Ribavirin being particularly effective. Topically, Acyclovir ointment can be applied to the affected areas. Hand, foot, and mouth disease has a greater impact on children, so it is recommended that parents bring their children to a specialized hospital for a follow-up visit and treatment under a doctor’s guidance. In daily life, you can give your child a moderate amount of juice to supplement vitamins and prevent diarrhea, hoping for an early recovery.
