Hands foot mouth or cold sore??

My little one started like this within a couple hours it was on different places of body and by end of day covered head to toe with hfm

Keep an eye see if it spreads as can happen with dribble rash

@Sophie oh noo — what was it when it spread across her body?

Hand foot and mouth

@Sophie did she have any other symptoms? What did you guys do to treat?

She went off her drink and food and irritable very lethargic but she had it bad and we gave calpol and ibruafen swapped every 3 hrs used Piriton and difflam spray as dr advised as went urgent care due to lack of wet nappies

HFM usually starts with cold symptoms then these spots, not much you can do except Calpol and cuddles, keep up the fluids as much as you can x

All I see is a pretty boy

For sure not a cold sore.

When my boy has this it’s usually right after sleep because he dribbles I went to the doctors and they said it’s a dribble rash xx
