Can I peel off my skin after HFMD?

Doctor's Answer

Hi, you can view answers by previous doctors on the best management of peeling skin due to HFMD here. In short, do not pick or peel your skin.

  • Moisturise your skin regularly (QV cream works well)
  • Drink lots of fluids to keep yourself well-hydrated
  • Protect your hands if necessary (gloves when doing the dishes)
