What should I do if I get hand, foot, and mouth disease?

Patient's question:

Got hand, foot, and mouth disease, and many blisters have appeared. Is it getting better or getting worse? I have been using antiseptic spray all the time. Is it okay? If not, how can it be fully healed?

Doctor's answer:

Hand, foot, and mouth disease is a viral infection. Taking antiviral medication can help treat it. I recommend taking acyclovir orally or using the antiviral compound "Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter." Apply ganciclovir ointment externally. Do not scratch, and it will heal gradually.
Hand, foot, and mouth disease can be very harmful to children. If a mom notices her child's symptoms, she should take them to a regular hospital for diagnosis immediately. At the same time, pay close attention to the child's care. It is advisable to have a proper diet and avoid cold foods. I hope the child can receive effective treatment and recover quickly!
