With the early monsoon and rising humidity, Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease (HFMD) cases are increasing, especially in children aged 6 to 9. Dr Amit Gupta, Senior Consultant Paediatrician and Neonatologist at Motherhood Hospitals, Noida, attributes this to viral spread in warm, humid conditions. He urges parents to maintain hygiene, watch for symptoms, and seek timely medical care.
