Question
Under what circumstances can hand, foot, and mouth disease be transmitted?
Answer
Hand, foot, and mouth disease is caused by a viral infection, and the virus is contagious during the incubation period. Patients should seek medical attention promptly and take necessary treatment measures, including oral antiviral medications and drugs to lower the body’s immunity. It is recommended that patients take medication continuously for about ten days and consume nutrient-rich foods and fruits and vegetables to aid in recovery.
