How should hand, foot, and mouth disease be treated?

Patient's question:

Hello doctor, there are also cases of adult infection, so how is hand, foot, and mouth disease treated? Does anyone know and can help answer.

Doctor's answer:

Home Care for Children with Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease
Currently, there is no specific treatment for hand, foot, and mouth disease, and the main approach is symptomatic treatment and care. Therefore, if a child contracts hand, foot, and mouth disease, parents should cooperate with the doctor and ensure proper care.
1. Disinfection and Isolation
First, the infected child should be isolated from healthy children. The child should stay at home until the fever, rashes, and blisters have healed and formed scabs. Generally, isolation is required for 2 weeks. Toys, utensils, or other items used by the infected child should be thoroughly disinfected.
