Question

What are the treatment methods for nail loss after hand, foot, and mouth disease? The child is not uncomfortable, but three fingers have the issue again.

Answer

Nail loss occurs because the epidermal tissue actually protects the hands and feet. Pay attention to moisture prevention to avoid damaging the nails. Although nail growth is slow, it will eventually improve. Pay attention to vitamin supplementation for digestion and ensure adequate rest with a good routine. Hand, foot, and mouth disease can cause significant harm to children. It is recommended that parents take their child to a specialist for a follow-up consultation and treat under the doctor’s guidance. In daily life, you can give the child some juice to aid digestion and vitamin absorption, prevent stomach troubles, and hope for the child’s quick recovery!
