What are the symptoms of hand, foot, and mouth disease in children?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

There is currently no specific preventive method for this disease. The main measures for epidemic control are to handle the excrement of patients properly, such as feces. Generally, medical measures are not needed for contacts. Kindergartens and similar institutions should conduct morning health checks, identify suspected cases, and isolate and treat them promptly. Daily items, utensils, toys, and other contaminated objects should be disinfected. Clothing should be exposed to sunlight, and indoor ventilation should be maintained. During outbreaks of hand, foot, and mouth disease, environmental hygiene, food hygiene, and personal hygiene should be well done. Wash hands before meals and after defecation to prevent the disease from entering through the mouth.
