Answer

Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease is a disease characterized by blisters on the hands, feet, and mouth, commonly seen in children. The condition is typically mild and short-lived. Treatment usually involves antiviral therapy, and if blood tests show an increase in white blood cell count, antibiotic use can be considered. The prognosis for hand, foot, and mouth disease is usually good, with most patients recovering completely. If a child shows symptoms of hand, foot, and mouth disease, parents should immediately take the child to a regular hospital for a consultation and pay attention to their child’s balanced diet in daily life to promote recovery.
