Patient's question:
In daily life, I pay close attention to my baby's hygiene, and I haven't let her go outside often. But what is the reason for the hand, foot, and mouth disease rash he got?Doctor's answer:
Hello. Hand, foot, and mouth disease is mostly caused by the transmission of enteroviruses. When a child is infected with this virus, red rashes often appear on their buttocks, palms, and soles of the feet. These types of rashes usually disappear when the virus is completely eliminated. However, there is no specific medication for this virus, and it is generally cleared by the child's own immune system. Mild cases of hand, foot, and mouth disease can be completely recovered within 5-7 days. Wishing you good health.
