Answer
It is recommended to seek medical attention at a dermatology clinic. If it is an allergy, antihistamines such as oral Cetrizine or Hismanal should be used for treatment. Hand, foot, and mouth disease has multiple factors. If diagnosed, treatment should be coordinated with a doctor, and hygiene habits should be noted. Children should have a balanced diet and avoid irritating food.
