Hand Foot & Mouth Disease

Hand Foot & Mouth Disease
Don't share eating utensils or drinking glasses, avoid close contact with infected people, don't touch blisters or lesions, wash your hands
dehydration is common because the sores in the mouth can make swallowing difficult
The majority of HFMD cases are minor, and most people recover in seven to ten days without medical treatment
The infection is spread through direct contact with the saliva, mucus, blister fluid, or feces of infected people. Within one or two days
The disease is transmitted by direct contact with nose and throat secretions, stool of infected people and airborne droplets from coughing
The incubation period is 3-5 days. The disease is contagious until the sores are completely healed.
Frequent hand washing
Proper disposal of contaminated tissues
Disinfection of all surfaces
There is no treatment for this disease, other than symptom relief. Nearly all patients recover within 7-10 days
A person with the disease is infectious until the blisters dry up. The virus is in the fluid of the blisters, and can be spread by coughing
Allow blisters to dry naturally.
There is no immunization against hand, foot and mouth disease
Your child may prefer cold drinks, including cold milk drinks, or ice blocks (these can be made with milk)

Dysentery-ORS

Please consult a doctor and don't take this as an information

To prevent dehydration, you should drink lots of water with some salt and sugar added. The symptoms of dehydration are dry mouth, sunken soft spot, lethargic, or frequent watery stools. Babies may in addition cry without tears, or do not produce urine for eight hours. These symptoms should be taken seriously for both the adults and children. A large number of children die due to dehydration each year.

Oral rehydration solution (ORS) works miracle in dehydration, if given quickly and gradually to the patient. ORS can be made from 1 teaspoon of salt and 8 teaspoons of sugar dissolved in a liter of water.

According to current WHO/UNICEF guidelines,[3] ORT should begin at home with "home fluids" or a home-prepared "sugar and salt" solution at the first sign of diarrhea to prevent dehydration.[4] Feeding should be continued at all times.[2] However, once dehydrated, the regimen should be switched to official preparations of oral rehydration solution (ORS) at the appropriate dosing times to ensure adequate hydration.

During the home-prepared stage, care should be taken to select the proper type of fluid to administer. The fluids given must contain both sugar and salt in the proper amounts. Liquids without both these components must be avoided. Too little or not enough of either can be ineffective and/or detrimental. Liquids without salt can lead to low body salt (hyponatremia) because the diarrheal stool contains salt and must be replenished. Additionally, sugar must also be present in the administered fluid because salt absorption is coupled with sugar in the intestine via the SGLT1 transporter.

one website says that please dont give too much medicines to reduce the frequency,it says it may cause side effects

Foods to be avoided during diarrhea or dysentery:
