Is Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease Vaccination Effective?

Question

I recently tested positive for hand, foot, and mouth disease at the hospital. Is vaccination for hand, foot, and mouth disease effective?

Answer

Hand, foot, and mouth disease is caused by a viral infection. In such cases, vaccination does not show significant effects, and there is a possibility of transmission when coming into contact with patients infected with the hand, foot, and mouth virus. Pay attention to a balanced diet and a diverse diet in daily life, strengthen physical exercise, and increase outdoor activities to enhance your body’s resistance. For hand, foot, and mouth disease, you can combine antiviral medication with treatment. For example, acyclovir or antiviral oral solution.
