Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease (HFMD) as a viral disease mostly affected children under the age of five years. HFMD is clinically characterized by a brief febrile illness followed by pharyngitis and rashes on skin. HFMD was a mild illness reported from developed countries, and most of the patients recovered within seven days. In view of the several controversial results of various studies, the study on Hand Foot and Mouth Disease: A Community Prospective was carried out. A cross-sectional survey was conducted using pretested structured questionnaire in Aralikatti village, Hirebagewadi Community Health Centre. Study involved 114 mothers of under five children attending Anganwadi schools from Aralikatti village, Belagavi, from them 100 mothers were found eligible and consented for the study. Data were statistically analyzed using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) software Version 26 with a significance value of p < 0.01 and 99% confidence intervals reported when applicable. The statistical significance (***p<0.05) for daily floor cleaning reflects stronger preventive attitudes in this group. The highest compliance with hygiene practices is observed in respondents who know the incubation period is six weeks, with 65.3% washing hands after defecation. Study suggests strengthening of health education for prevention of communicable disease in general and HFMD in particular.
