Hand-foot-mouth disease prevention
Hand-foot-mouth disease is a type of viral infection caused by the enterovirus. Enterovirus is a small branch of the virus (Enterovirus genus), which includes 4 virus species. At present, there are more than 20 types of enteroviruses known to cause hand-foot-mouth disease, of which Coxsackievirus A16 (CoxA16) and enterovirus 71 (EV71) are the most common. Because there are many types of pathogens, there is no cross-immunity between the types, so even if you had to hand, foot and mouth before, you can not guarantee that the disease will not occur in the future. Hand-foot-and-mouth disease is one of the common infectious diseases caused by enteroviruses. It is mainly transmitted through the fecal-oral route. It is mainly characterized by fever and rashes in the palms, soles of the feet, and oral cavity. The incubation period is 2-10 days and the clinical symptoms in children. Most of them are lighter, with hands, feet, mouth, hip rash, herpes or ulcers as the main manifestations. Small blisters and small ulcers in the oral cavity are often the first symptoms in children. Some cases are accompanied by elevated body temperature, which is common in children under 5 years of age, especially in children 3 years of age and younger. Normal adults do not develop the disease after infection but can carry the virus and transmit it to children. Most of the patients had milder symptoms, and individual patients may have concurrent myocarditis, encephalitis or even death. How to prevent baby hand, foot and mouth disease 1.
