Hand, foot, and mouth disease is an infectious disease caused by several types of enteroviruses, primarily affecting children under the age of 5. It often manifests as small grayish-white blisters or red papules, ranging in size from rice grains to green beans, with redness around them on areas such as the inner cheeks, tongue, soft and hard palate, inner lips, palms, soles of the feet, elbows, knees, buttocks, and groin. The blisters are described as "not like anything": not like insect bites, not like drug rashes, not like oral or gingival herpes, and not like chickenpox.
