⚠️ Parents, watch out for these signs!
If your child suddenly has fever, painful mouth sores, and rashes on the hands or feet, it could be Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease (HFMD).
HFMD is a common viral infection in babies and young children and it can spread quickly through saliva, coughing, sneezing, and contaminated surfaces.
👶 Common signs include:
• Fever
• Painful mouth sores
• Blisters or red spots on hands and feet
• Sore throat
• Loss of appetite or irritability
While most cases are mild, make sure your child drinks enough fluids and gets proper rest. If symptoms worsen or your child cannot drink fluids, it’s best to seek medical advice.
🛡️ Prevention is key:
✔ Frequent handwashing
✔ Disinfect toys and surfaces
✔ Keep sick children at home
