Patient's question:
Recently, hand, foot, and mouth disease has been very prevalent. I'm worried that my baby might get infected. How is hand, foot, and mouth disease transmitted?Doctor's answer:
Hello, first of all, hand, foot, and mouth disease is mainly caused by the transmission of many enteroviruses. Typically, it primarily manifests as fever, sore throat, oral ulcers, or the recurrence of many blisters on the limbs. It is usually spread through the digestive tract and respiratory tract. However, there is no need to be overly anxious. With symptomatic treatment, recovery usually occurs within a week or two.
