Question

How should I handle white, clear blisters on a baby’s hands? Could it be Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease?

Answer

Firstly, check if there are similar symptoms on the baby’s feet and mouth, and measure their body temperature. If there are no signs of Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease and the blisters are not painful or itchy, they may be caused by contact dermatitis, related to contact with some substance. This is usually not a serious issue and can be relieved with anti-inflammatory ointment.
