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 contxagious disease. calamine lotion is applied on the skin eruption zytee / dologel on the ulcer before food intake anti histamxine for skin itching paracetamol for fever and pain give mild cold liquid diet when ulcers are more
