Can I be reinfected with HFMD if I have had it? Hand, foot and mouth disease is one of the common infectious diseases caused by enteroviruses, which mostly occurs in preschool children, especially in the 3-year-old age group, which can cause fever, rash and ulcers on the hands, feet, mouth and other parts, and individual patients can cause fatal complications such as myocarditis, pulmonary edema, and aseptic meningoencephalitis. There are more than 20 types of enteroviruses that can cause hand, foot and mouth disease, and coxsackievirus is the most common.

Both adults and children are susceptible to the disease, but many people may have been infected with the virus and developed antibodies when they were young. Because there is more than one virus that causes hand, foot and mouth disease, after each virus is infected, antibodies to the virus will be produced accordingly, even if it is a hidden infection, that is, patients who do not get sick after infection, they will basically not get the hand, foot and mouth disease caused by the virus in the future, but this does not mean that patients who have had hand, foot and mouth disease will not get sick again, and other viruses can also be infected. Then people don't need to panic too much, hand washing is a fundamental measure to prevent hand, foot and mouth disease.

Don't underestimate handwashing, correct handwashing knowledge is very important. Under normal circumstances, if you have not been exposed to the source of infection, you can wash your hands with soap or water.

Experts remind that disinfectant wipes are not a substitute for hand washing. As for the time to wash your hands, there is no regulation, experts recommend that it is better to do it for more than 20 seconds.

There are four great ways to prevent hand, foot and mouth disease: First, use fresh air to drive away the virus. In clean air, it is difficult for viruses to "stay" or multiply indoors.

Therefore, the room should be ventilated more than 3 times a day for no less than 30 minutes each time. The second is to use ultraviolet light to kill viruses. Use the ultraviolet rays in the sunlight to kill the virus, and this method is applicable to baby clothes and bedding.

The third is high temperature and boiling water to kill viruses. The tableware or feeding bottles used by the baby should be sterilized at high temperature every day, boiled in boiling water for more than 15 minutes, and should not be mixed or shared with adults' tableware. Fourth, chlorine-containing disinfectants eradicate viruses.
