Doctor's answer:

Hand, foot, and mouth disease in children refers to the appearance of small blisters or bumps on the mouth, hands, feet, and other areas, accompanied by pain. It can also cause fever and similar symptoms. If you suspect your child has hand, foot, and mouth disease, you can take them to a regular hospital's pediatric department for a check-up. Hand, foot, and mouth disease is contagious, so it's important to seek timely treatment. This disease is usually caused by poor personal hygiene, so parents must pay attention to their child's personal hygiene.
