Question
My baby has hand, foot, and mouth disease and the rash has now formed scabs. What kind of food can they eat at this point?
Answer
Given the child’s condition description, the child is currently in the recovery phase of hand, foot, and mouth disease. During this period, it is suggested to adopt a light dietary approach, such as soups or porridge, while avoiding giving the child spicy foods that might affect the recovery of their condition. When choosing food for the child, consider options like lean meat or chicken broth, but be mindful of portion sizes and ensure that the food is soft and easy to digest.
