👉🏽Facts About Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease (HFMD)

HFMD is caused by a virus.
It spreads through coughs, sneezes, and touching things.
Kids under 5 get it most often.
Symptoms include fever, mouth sores, and a rash on hands and feet.
Most cases heal in 7-10 days, but severe cases take longer.

👇🏼Tips to Clean and Stop the Spread

Wash hands often with soap and water.
Clean toys, doorknobs, and surfaces daily.
Don’t share cups, utensils, or towels.
Stay home if sick to avoid spreading it.
Use disinfectant wipes on high-touch areas.

👇🏼Myths About HFMD

Myth: Only kids get it.
Fact: Adults can get it too, but it’s less common.

Myth: You can get it from animals.
Fact: HFMD only spreads between people.

👇🏼Where Can Kids Get HFMD?

Daycares and schools (close contact with others).
Playgrounds (shared toys and surfaces).
Public places (stores, parks, etc.).
At home (from family members who are sick).

👇🏼How to Help Kids with HFMD

Relieve Pain: Use acetaminophen or ibuprofen (ask a doctor first).
Hydrate: Offer water, milk, or cold drinks. Avoid acidic drinks.
Soothe Sores: Give soft, cool foods like yogurt or ice pops.
Rest: Keep kids home until fever and symptoms are gone.
Watch for Dehydration: Call a doctor if they can’t drink

👉🏼Does It Mean You’re Dirty?

No, getting HFMD doesn’t mean you’re dirty. It spreads easily, even if you’re clean. Kids catch it because they touch everything and often put hands or toys in their mouths. Good hygiene helps, but it’s not always enough to stop the virus.
