Hand, foot, and mouth disease is more common in which seasons?

Patient's question:

Lately, my boss has said that I'm not in good spirits, which has affected my work performance. Actually, I didn't mean to, either. I often can't sleep at night, and sometimes I feel anxious and uncomfortable. If it gets worse, I'm worried it will affect my health and work. Could you please tell me in which seasons hand, foot, and mouth disease is more common?

Doctor's answer:

Hand, foot, and mouth disease is a common and mild but highly contagious infectious disease that can be caused by various enteroviruses. It is most prevalent during the summer and early autumn. There are many factors that can trigger hand, foot, and mouth disease. If a child is diagnosed with the disease, parents need to cooperate with the doctor to start treatment immediately, assist with gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. Parents should pay attention not to develop picky eating habits in their children and ensure a balanced diet.
