You get the most from this site when you provide more detail for us to work with. If you mean hand-foot-mouth disease it is a self-resolving viral illness. Comfort measures are worthwhile. If you have particular concerns/questions you should start over and state them in a new post. Posys here are never linked, so each must have all related info.

If diagnosed by your doc, you should have received instructions that you should follow. If self diagnosed, best will be to see your doc for confirmation and further instructions. Self diagnosis may create significant anxiety through indiscriminate use of Internet and getting professional help will bring peace of mind.
