Patient's question:
My daughter is usually a very lively and lovable girl. She is particularly charming, but she often bites her hands and puts them in her mouth. I have told her many times about this habit, but she never seems to understand. Now she has hand, foot, and mouth disease. What should I do about hand, foot, and mouth disease?Doctor's answer:
Children's hand, foot, and mouth disease is contagious, so it's important to be careful and avoid crowded places. If you are already in kindergarten, don't go even if the disease hasn't fully recovered. If the symptoms are not severe, the disease will naturally improve within 1 to 2 weeks. If the condition worsens and causes low fever, it's essential to take fever-reducing medication or go to the hospital for anti-inflammatory injections.
