Dietary care for hand, foot and mouth disease

In most cases, babies with HFMD will have herpes and ulcers in their mouths, so it is important to pay attention to a light and easily digestible diet, with a liquid and semi-liquid diet as much as possible, which can reduce the pain in the baby’s mouth. Also pay attention to eating more foods rich in vitamin C and more fresh vegetables and fruits to replenish essential vitamins that will help the ulcers to repair. Because most babies with HFMD will have herpes on their hands and feet, the same attention needs to be paid to their diet. Try to avoid allergy-prone foods such as fish, shrimp, seafood, tropical fruits, beef and mutton. These allergy-prone foods are very likely to aggravate your baby’s rash, so they must be avoided.
