What Are the Early Symptoms of Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease in Babies?

Question

With the flu being prevalent in spring and children having weaker resistance, if a child’s hands start to itch with rashes, could it be hand, foot, and mouth disease?

Answer

Hand, foot, and mouth disease is commonly transmitted through droplets or contact. If a child exhibits symptoms such as fever, red rashes, and sore throat, it could be hand, foot, and mouth disease. It’s important to practice isolation and hygiene, and symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication and antiviral drugs can be taken orally.
