How to Determine if a Child Has Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease?

Question

How can you confirm if a child has hand, foot, and mouth disease?

Answer

Hand, foot, and mouth disease is an infectious disease caused by a virus, commonly presenting with symptoms such as fever and the appearance of blisters on the hands, feet, and mouth. Generally, children under five years of age are more susceptible to infection. If you notice your child has a fever and blisters on their hands, feet, or mouth, it is advisable to seek medical attention immediately for relevant examinations to determine if they have contracted hand, foot, and mouth disease. If not infected, consider visiting the local health station to get vaccinated for prevention.
