hii Leena .. Hand, foot, and mouth disease is a highly contagious infection. It's caused by viruses from the Enterovirus family, most commonly the coxsackievirus. These viruses can spread from person-to-person through direct contact with unwashed hands or surfaces contaminated with feces. Try these tips to help make blister soreness less bothersome and eating and drinking more tolerable: 1. Suck on ice pops or ice chips. 2. Eat ice cream or sherbet. 3. Drink cold beverages, such as milk or ice water. Avoid acidic foods and beverages, such as citrus fruits, fruit drinks and soda. Avoid salty or spicy foods.
