A. hand and foot and mouth disease is a self limiting viral infection. commonly seen is viral red eruptions on the skin mainly on the joints of the body and on the bums and around the mouth and there are ulcers in the oral cavity. only symptoms treatment is given for fever as well as for pain and itching and oral ulcers and the disease usually resolves maximum by 1 to 1 and half weeks. meet your doctor for more information regarding this disease. the child should stay away from other children for at least one week because it is a contagious disease. calamine lotion is applied on thed skin eruption zytee / dologel on the ulcer before food intake anti histamine for skin itching paracetamolx for fever and pain give mild cold liquid diet when ulcers are more

A. Proper course of medication would be required for this issue as it is spreading quite a lot these days your paediatrician would be able to help you with the right kind of medicine that you need to follow and any precautions if you need to take ahead with the medications that you are giving to the child
