Will I be contagious after recovering from hand, foot, and mouth disease and being discharged from the hospital?

Patient's question:

I just recovered from hand, foot, and mouth disease and am staying with relatives in my home. If my baby comes into contact with him, will he get infected?

Doctor's answer:

Hand, foot, and mouth disease is mainly spread through contact. After children contract the disease, the course of the illness usually lasts for two weeks, and after two weeks, the contagiousness is generally very low.
