Well, watch out for the above symtoms and request to see the teacher.Hand, foot and mouth disease do not only occur below five as children older age can also have hand foot and mouth disease.Toprevent yourself from having hand foot and mouth disease, you must wash your hands and do not share food and drink together. If you suspect that your friend have hand foot and mouth disease, tell the teacher and let your friend know and stay away from him or her. I knew someone who got hand foot and mouth disease before. If you know someone who have hand foot and mouth disease, stay aways as far as posible and the person who have hand foot and mouth disease must go and see a doctor and stay away from school as long as posible until recovered fully. My one and only advise to all the children is to look after yourself and if you suspect you are down with a=hand foot and mouth disease, don't hesitate, tell your teacher or our parent to seek a doctor.
