Herpangina: A Common Summer Viral Infection

Herpangina is a viral infection that causes fever, sore throat, and painful mouth sores. It is more common during summer because viruses spread faster in warm weather and children have more close contact during travel and outdoor activities.

How to prevent:
• Encourage frequent handwashing
• Avoid sharing utensils, cups, or towels
• Keep children well hydrated
• Maintain clean surroundings

Watch for: Fever, mouth sores, sore throat, and difficulty swallowing.

Consult an ENT specialist if symptoms persist, worsen, or if signs of dehydration appear.
