Question

What medication can treat hand, foot, and mouth disease?

Answer

Avoid eating cold or spicy and irritating foods; do not give salty food to prevent pain and refusal to eat. The diet should be easy to digest, with light, soft, and warm dishes. Drink plenty of warm water. Prevention measures mainly include isolating the sick child, strengthening the health care of infants and young children to reduce the chance of infection. At the same time, pay attention to air circulation and appropriate temperature in the living environment.
