Are the Small Dots on the Tongue a Sign of Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease?

Question

I found small dots on my tongue and on the sides of my legs. Could these be symptoms of Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease?

Answer

During this season, Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease is quite common, and these symptoms could indeed be indicative of the condition. To ensure an accurate diagnosis and receive proper treatment, I recommend taking your child to the hospital for a comprehensive examination and laboratory tests. While Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease is generally not a severe illness, it still requires correct diagnosis and treatment. I hope this information is helpful to you.
