Typical age presenting with HFMD
< 10 years with low onset fever, loss of appetite , cough abdominal pain ,diarrhea, malaise
What are the characterisitic signs of HFMD?
The oropharynx is inflamed, with scattered papules, macules, vesicles, or ulcers on an erythematous base present on the tongue, pharynx, buccal mucosa, gingiva, and occasionally the lips. If the child presents late, only yellowish ulcerations will be seen, as vesicles tend to rupture quickly. The ulcers are 4 to 8 mm in size and may be sharply marginated. Lesions do not usually involve the soft palate, and generalized ulceration in the mouth is unusual. Erythema and edema of the tongue may also occur.

There is usually an acral rash involving the palms and soles, with small oval or linear gray-white vesicopustules. The vesicles are flaccid and thin-walled, with an erythematous halo. They may occasionally be painful or pruritic. They tend to ulcerate and become crusted. Lesions heal within 1 week. A maculopapular rash may be seen on the buttocks in infants and small children, but it does not usually ulcerate. Younger children tend to have all the features, whereas older children may have only the oral lesions or the acral lesions.

Lidocaine topical (2% gel) for the pruritis
