COULD THE SMALL, RED SORES THAT BURN AND NOW ITCH THAT ARE LOCATED ON MY HANDS, FINGERS, TOES, AND FEET BE RELATED TO THE HAND-MOUTH-FOOT DISEASE.? IF SO, IF I TOUCH ANOTHER PART OF MY BODY HOW FAST DOES IT SPREAD? WHAT CREAMS CAN I PUT ON THEM TO MAKE THEM STOP ITCHING? SHOULD I START RETAKING THE ANTIBIOTIC TO GET RID OF THE SORES?

Hi

Hand, foot and mouth disease is a viral condition of childhood.

It produces small grey ,painless, blistes/ulcers.

It sounds like you have something else.

Reply to Alexander Irvine's Post: I'VE READ THAT ADULTS WHO WORK WITH SMALL CHILDREN CAN ALSO GET THE DISEASE. IS THAT CORRECT? ALSO, IS IT CORRECT THAT NOT ALL THE SORES HURT. ALTHOUGH, WHEN YOU HAVE THE DISEASE IN YOUR MOUTH THEY HURT BADLY. IS THIS STATEMENT CORRECT? ALSO, HOW CAN ANY DOCTOR BE SO SURE AS TO WHAT THEY THINK IF THEY HAVEN'T SEEN THE PATIENTS HANDS, FEET, AND MOUTH?
