hi thanks for asking this on HCM, HAND FOOT AND MOUTH DISEASE IS CAUSED BY ENTERO VIRUS WHICH PRESENTS WITH SORE THROAT AND RASHES IN YOUR MOUTH. IT USUALLY DOESNT NEED ANY TREATMENT YOU CAN TAKE COOL LIQUIDS TO HELP WITH YOUR SORE THROAT. AVOID SPICY AND HOT FOODS. IF YOU HAVE FEVER AND PAIN YOU C.AN TAKE PARACETAMOL.DONT WORRY IT WILL SUBSIDE IN 2 TO 3 DAYS. HOPE THIS HELPED
