My daughter had gotten it when she first started daycare she wasn’t even one yet! It can be nerve wracking, all you can do is make sure they don’t put there hands in there mouth, keep them moisturized with aquaphor, and hydrocortisone, depending on the age tyou can get hydrocortisone 1.5% over counter, if you need something stronger you’ll have to get a prescription from his doctor, and just keep them fed and hydrated. Don’t let them itch.

I didn’t catch it, and I was informed that if you’ve had it before as a kid you’re less likely to get it as an adult. So you’ll be ok
