Question

Can a child who has recovered from hand, foot, and mouth disease eat sushi?

Answer

Based on your description, after the symptoms of hand, foot, and mouth disease have lessened, patients can consume a moderate amount of light foods. If there is no allergy to sushi, it can be eaten occasionally, but one should be cautious not to overindulge as this may lead to indigestion. Additionally, it is recommended to follow the treatment under a doctor’s guidance and to schedule regular follow-up visits to ensure the child’s health is recovering. In daily meals, you can give your child some juice to aid digestion and supplement vitamins. We hope the child can recover soon!
