Is there a cream to soothe/heal hand, foot, and mouth?

There are creams available to help soothe and heal hand, foot, and mouth disease. Creams without fragrance such as Base Glaxal, Cerave, Cutibase, and Aveeno (fragrance-free formulation) can help alleviate irritation and itching. It is recommended to apply the cream as often as needed throughout the day. Using a fragrance-free soap like Dove and avoiding using any soap on the face can also help. After bathing, gently pat the skin dry to leave a thin layer of moisture and apply a moisturizer within 5 minutes of getting out of the bath.
