Causes and Risk Factors
Enteroviruses, most often coxsackievirus A16 and enterovirus A71. The virus spreads through saliva, fluid from blisters, coughs and sneezes and stools, so it moves rapidly through nurseries, hotel kids’ clubs and swimming areas. Symptoms normally appear 3 to 6 days after contact. Adults can catch it too, typically with milder symptoms.
Understanding Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease
Hand, foot and mouth disease is a frequent viral infection, mainly in young children, that causes fever, painful mouth ulcers and a blister-like rash on the palms and soles. It is generally mild and clears up on its own within 7 to 10 days. It is not related to foot-and-mouth disease in cattle.
Symptoms of Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease
- Fever and feeling unwell
- Loss of appetite and drooling in small children
- Sore throat and painful mouth ulcers
- Rash that can also appear on the buttocks, knees or elbows

Any medicine can be sent as an e-prescription to the nearest pharmacy. Treatment can involve fluids, soothing mouth care and paracetamol or ibuprofen for fever and pain, as no specific antiviral is needed.
- Offer plenty of cool fluids, little and frequently, to prevent dehydration
