Question
My daughter is three and a half years old. She recently developed ulcers in her mouth and some red spots on the soles of her feet. I want to know if this could be hand, foot, and mouth disease?
Answer
The blisters of hand, foot, and mouth disease usually appear on one side of the palms or soles, surrounded by red halos. The white blisters typically turn dark red after about 2 days, and the rash usually disappears within 5-7 days. It is recommended to take your child to a regular hospital for a check-up to determine the cause and receive appropriate treatment.
