Hand, foot, and mouth disease symptoms are itchy?

Patient's question:

My child said that his feet have been uncomfortable for the past few days. Today, he mentioned that his mouth is also uncomfortable. I checked and found canker sores. He said it hurts a lot. Do the symptoms of hand, foot, and mouth disease cause itching? His feet are itchy now. My husband and I are very worried and took him for a thorough examination. I am very sad now.

Doctor's answer:

Due to differences in individual constitution and illness, clinical manifestations may also vary. If rashes or blisters reappear on the child's hands, feet, or inside the mouth, even if accompanied by itching, hand, foot, and mouth disease cannot be ruled out. Additionally, hand, foot, and mouth disease can easily lead to fever. When necessary, it is essential to go to a formal hospital's pediatric department for a thorough examination. After diagnosis, consult the doctor's advice.
