Patient's question:
My husband's niece has been having intermittent high fever these past few days. It's particularly difficult for her to bring down the fever. After checking at the hospital, they found that there were many growths in her throat and suspected she might have hand, foot, and mouth disease. Now, I'd like to ask, what should she avoid eating with hand, foot, and mouth disease?Doctor's answer:
Hand, foot, and mouth disease diet should be light and hygienic, avoiding greasy and hard-to-digest foods. Drink more water, eat more vegetables and fruits, and supplement sufficient vitamins to help with recovery. Patients with hand, foot, and mouth disease should avoid close contact with others to prevent the possibility of transmission. It is also necessary to avoid crowded places as much as possible, wash hands frequently, maintain hygiene, and keep windows open for ventilation to prevent worsening the infection.
