Patient's question:
Baby has hand, foot, and mouth disease, and the blisters have crusted over for several days now. Can they go to external interest classes?Doctor's answer:
The incubation period for hand, foot, and mouth disease is generally about two weeks, meaning that appropriate isolation should be provided for the child for two weeks after the onset of symptoms. It is recommended that you wait for one week after the rash on the child's hands, feet, and mouth disappears before taking them to public places. The child's clothes, bedding, and other items should be washed and exposed to sunlight for sterilization. The child should rest well.Since the child is suffering from hand, foot, and mouth disease, the mother must take the child to the doctor immediately for treatment to avoid various misunderstandings. Timely symptomatic treatment is essential. For parents, it is important to closely observe any changes in the child's symptoms and do their best to help the child receive timely treatment for the disease.
