Is the red spots on the child's hands and feet hand, foot, and mouth disease?

Patient's question:

Our child went to the hospital for a thorough examination, and the doctor said it was herpangina. Besides that, our child has a few red spots on their hands and red spots on their toes. All the toes have them, but there are not many on the soles of the feet. Is this hand, foot, and mouth disease?

Doctor's answer:

Based on your description, it's not very clear. It's recommended to upload the photos for a clear diagnosis. Alternatively, you can visit the dermatology department of a Grade A hospital for an in-person consultation to have it diagnosed by professionals and confirm the best treatment plan.
In daily life, pay attention to rest, avoid overtime work, maintain a light diet, eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, and avoid spicy and irritating foods. Enhance personal hygiene, bathe frequently, change to fresh clothes often, and do not scratch the affected skin.
The above suggestions are for the question "Our child needs to go to the hospital for a thorough examination." I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
