How to effectively treat fever in hand, foot, and mouth disease that is not under control?

Answer

Hand, foot, and mouth disease can sometimes cause fever, which usually doesn’t require excessive concern and can be managed with appropriate medication. It’s important to frequently wash hands and feet, rinse the face with salt water, avoid catching a cold, adjust clothing as needed, drink plenty of water, keep warm, and take symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication or other fever-reducing remedies. Rest at home and maintain good environmental hygiene.
