Patient's question:
Our baby just turned one year old this year. When I was pregnant, my child had a bit of poor nutrition, so since birth, their constitution has always been quite weak. Last night, I contracted the virus for simple oral herpes. I want to ask, will the baby get hand, foot, and mouth disease?Doctor's answer:
Adults with simple oral herpes will never infect babies with hand, foot, and mouth disease. Simple oral herpes is generally not infectious, while hand, foot, and mouth disease is caused by viral infection. As long as you pay attention to your baby's personal hygiene and avoid crowded places, it is generally cause the recurrence of hand, foot, and mouth disease. If the baby has a weak constitution, it is essential to enhance nutrition and increase physical exercise.
