Question
What is the most effective medicine for treating hand, foot, and mouth disease?
Answer
Hand, foot, and mouth disease can often be self-healing in non-severe cases. However, it requires some time. Symptomatic herbal medications can be taken to clear heat and detoxify internally, such as Qingkailing, Shuanghuanglian Oral Liquid, and Banlangen Decoction. During this period, drink plenty of water to prevent catching a cold from wind, eat fresh fruits and vegetables, and drink warm water to help the body expel toxins.
