How can hand, foot, and mouth disease be prevented

Patient's question:

How to prevent hand, foot, and mouth disease, what disinfectant to use at home, and whether soap or hand sanitizer is better for children to wash their faces

Doctor's answer:

Hand, foot, and mouth disease is caused by enterovirus transmission and spreads through ingestion and contact. Prevention of hand, foot, and mouth disease suggests paying close attention to hand hygiene; both soap and hand sanitizer can be used for washing. Frequent hand washing, good ventilation, and avoiding drinking raw water or eating raw meat are recommended. Floor disinfection can be done using chlorine-containing disinfectants such as 84 disinfectant.
If a child is affected by hand, foot, and mouth disease, parents must take them to see a doctor immediately for treatment to prevent the use of blind medication to alleviate symptoms. For parents, it is important to promptly monitor the child's condition and do their best to help the child receive timely treatment for the disease.
