Patient's question:
I feel particularly unwell, and this has been going on for a long time. Could you please tell me at what age it is best to get the hand, foot, and mouth disease vaccine?Doctor's answer:
The vaccine for hand, foot, and mouth disease generally requires vaccination for children aged six months to five years. Currently, it is usually administered to children aged six months to three years, as this age group has relatively weaker resistance and immunity, making them more susceptible to the disease. The hand, foot, and mouth disease vaccine is generally recommended to be administered to children before they start kindergarten, as after starting kindergarten, children are less likely to pay attention to hygiene, making them more prone to infection.
