Patient's question:
My son is 6 years old this year. Recently, there has been a hand, foot, and mouth disease outbreak at his school. My son has also been infected, but it's mild. He is currently receiving treatment in the hospital. Because it's a contagious disease, he has also been isolated. How many days of injections are required for mild hand, foot, and mouth disease?Doctor's answer:
For general mild hand, foot, and mouth disease, it usually takes about a week to recover. Medication or injections can be used for antiviral treatment. Drink plenty of water, maintain personal hygiene, and have a light diet. Avoid overly greasy and stimulating foods. It's also important to supplement with multiple vitamins, enhance physical fitness, and improve immunity, which are beneficial for recovery.
