Patient's question:
Recently, there have been some cases of hand, foot, and mouth disease in the baby's kindergarten. I'm very afraid that my child will get infected with this disease, so please tell me how to prevent hand, foot, and mouth disease in children. What measures are the easiest for children to accept?Doctor's answer:
Hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD) is a highly contagious childhood infectious disease. To prevent HFMD, it is essential to cut off transmission routes, reduce the opportunity for children to come into contact with sick children, minimize visits to crowded places, encourage frequent handwashing, regularly disinfect personal items, maintain good indoor air circulation, and ensure a balanced nutritional intake. Eat more fresh fruits and vegetables to strengthen children's immunity.
