Patient's question:
Today, a child from my neighbor got sick and was hospitalized. My son still played with him. Will it be contagious?Medical history and treatment effectiveness: His condition is quite good today, with no adverse reactions. Will it be contagious? How can it be prevented?
Doctor's answer:
Hello, I'm glad to answer your question: Hand, foot, and mouth disease is contagious. The incubation period is usually 1 to 2 weeks. It is recommended to give the child more water to drink these days, eat more fruits and vegetables, and keep bowel movements smooth. If the child does not have a fever, it will be less likely to get sick. The above is my suggestion for the question "Is hand, foot, and mouth disease contagious?" I hope my reply is helpful to you. Wish you health!
