How to prevent hand, foot, and mouth disease effectively

Patient's question:

I would like to ask how to prevent hand, foot, and mouth disease in advance to avoid getting infected. If isolation is not possible, is the fever two days ago caused by fever? There are three small bubbles on the tip of the tongue. Is it hand, foot, and mouth disease?

Doctor's answer:

Children with related symptoms should seek medical attention promptly. Children receiving treatment at home should not come into contact with other children. Parents should promptly dry or disinfect their children's clothes. The children's feces should be disinfected in a timely manner. Children with mild illnesses do not need hospitalization. They should be treated and rest at home to reduce cross-infection. Regarding the child's condition, I recommend that they first go to the hospital for examination and diagnosis to confirm whether it is hand, foot, and mouth disease before receiving treatment.
