How to treat hand, foot, and mouth disease in babies?

Patient's question:

A girl is 10 years old this year. I don't know why I had this disease back then because I didn't pay attention to it at the time. I only went for a check-up when I felt unwell, and this disease had already started to affect my life. Please ask: How is hand, foot, and mouth disease treated?

Doctor's answer:

It is important to isolate promptly, use medication scientifically, avoid crowded places, maintain good living habits, wash your face before meals and after using the restroom, drink plenty of water, and eat light, easily digestible foods. Avoid extremely cold, spicy, or irritating foods. Change your clothes frequently. If you have a low-grade fever below 38.5°C, you can take some fever-reducing medication. Additionally, closely monitor any changes in your condition, and seek medical attention promptly if other symptoms arise.
In daily life, patients should maintain a balanced intake of nutrients, engage in aerobic exercises to strengthen their bodies, and keep a positive mood to enhance their immunity and accelerate recovery.
