Question
How should early-stage hand, foot, and mouth disease be treated?
Answer
During the early stages of hand, foot, and mouth disease, oral antiviral medications are generally sufficient. Paying close attention to personal hygiene is crucial. It’s important to avoid crowded places and public spaces as the disease is contagious. Typically, with active treatment, improvement can be seen within a week. Actively engage in physical exercise, balance mental and physical health, and maintain personal hygiene.
