Question
My child has hand, foot, and mouth disease. What should I do?
Answer
Hand, foot, and mouth disease is not just about having ulcers in the mouth and red spots on the palms and soles; it’s often triggered by a lack of calcium, zinc, and iron, leading to the habit of biting fingers. It is recommended to supplement these nutrients appropriately, maintain a balanced diet, drink plenty of water, eat more vegetables and fruits, reduce the intake of fried foods, and keep good hygiene habits and regular routines.
