hand and foot rash
by dian354, Apr 29, 2009 09:04PM
just noticed my nine year boy on the palm of his hands he has red spots kind of like a rash. the spots look like blisters but they are not clear nor do they seem to have any fluid in them. i checked the rest of his body and it seem that he also has some in between his toes. what could this be. should i be concerned?

Without examination,confirmation of a diagnosis is tough,but it can be due to hands,foot and mouth disease.It is an infection that is usually caused by a virus called the coxsackie A virus. It usually affects children under 10 years of age and often starts with a feeling of being unwell for a day or so.Then there is fever and typical blisters like rash on hands,foot and inside mouth.
As with other viral infections,antibiotics are not needed.Rest,plenty of fluids and acetaminophen if there is any fever is needed.
I feel that you should consult a pediatrician and discuss it with him.
Hope it helps.Take care and pls do keep me posted on how your son is doing or if you have any additional queries.Warm regards.
