Hello, hand, foot, and mouth disease is a contagious infectious disease in infants and young children caused by enterovirus infection. In treatment, antiviral drugs such as acyclovir, valacyclovir, famciclovir, and traditional Chinese medicine can be used. External application of antibacterial ointment can prevent blister rupture and infection. Additionally, drugs such as transfer factor can be appropriately used to enhance the baby's immunity. Pay attention to hygiene, perform proper disinfection and care, and prevent secondary or cross infections.
