What kind of medicine is good for hand, foot, and mouth disease?

Patient's question:

Doctor, my child accidentally contracted hand, foot, and mouth disease. Hello, what medicine is best for hand, foot, and mouth disease?

Doctor's answer:

If your child has hand, foot, and mouth disease, generally speaking, it is better to first sterilize with povidone-iodine after surgery and then apply acyclovir ointment. Additionally, you need to pay attention to fever. If there is a fever, you must go to the hospital for a check-up, have a complete blood count done, and see if there is a mixed bacterial or viral infection. In that case, you may need to take antiviral or anti-inflammatory medication. Pay attention to the child's mental state, as hand, foot, and mouth disease can easily lead to secondary neuron meningitis. Wishing your child a speedy recovery.
