Hand, foot, and mouth disease primarily occurs on the oral mucosa and also on the hands and feet. It can also affect other parts of the body. Herpes is caused by a viral infection. The blisters are clear with red bases. If you cannot distinguish the recommended frequency band. The child went to a pediatric clinic and received active treatment after diagnosis.
