HFM .... help?!
So, my son was diagnosed with hand foot mouth disease on Thursday last week, we haven’t seen any spots and thought we were lucky and it was only contained to his mouth and throat, which was hell Wednesday night, Thursday and Friday. Well. This morning he woke up with a spot on his lip, a spot above his lip, and about 6 of them on his feet. Is it normal for them to take this long to appear?? He was exposed to it last Saturday and the fever started Wednesday night and spiked on Thursday. Low grade fevers after that, which seemed to stop all together yesterday. They don’t seem to bother him yet, but what can I do if they do start to bother him?! His ped said a benadryl mixture, but only for his mouth and throat.
** edited to ask, how did you mamas sanitize everything after coxsackie? Any bleach free alternatives??
