Question

My child is now five years old and has been diagnosed with Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease. What should I do?

Answer

Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease is caused by rotavirus infection, and children generally lack immunity. In severe cases, it can lead to near-death conditions. Given its contagious nature and significant social impact, it is essential to take it seriously and seek active treatment as soon as possible. This includes taking oral antiviral medications, boosting the body’s constitution and immunity, using antiviral oral solutions, and preventing colds. The disease can cause considerable harm to children, so it is advisable for parents to bring their children to a specialized clinic for follow-up treatment under a doctor’s guidance. In daily life, it is important to provide plenty of care and attention to the child, pay close attention to their dietary issues, and hope for a quick recovery!
