What should I do if I have a child at home with hand, foot, and mouth disease?

Patient's question:

Herpes on the buttocks. Inflammatory erythema around the herpes. Two or three spots on the feet. I am currently pregnant. There is a child in the family suffering from hand, foot, and mouth disease. When feeding the child, I used the same spoon as her. Will this affect my fetus? If it does, what measures should I take?

Doctor's answer:

It's best not to use the same spoon! This might have a certain impact on you and your baby in the womb! From now on, don't use the spoon! It's recommended that you go to the hospital for a check-up and receive treatment based on the results. Don't take medicine casually; if you do, please follow the doctor's advice! At the same time, maintain a positive mindset, as a positive attitude is very helpful for treating the illness! It's also suggested that you pay attention to your child's diet now and avoid spicy and irritating foods.
