I have a rash since I had a fever?

Question

Hello, I have a pimple rash that keeps multiplying on my hands, feet, knees and elbows. I had a 4 day fever 9 days ago due to mastitis. My daughter-in-law had hand-foot-mouth about a month ago. Could it be hand-foot-mouth? I already had it 4 years ago. The spots on my knees appeared on Saturday after a day outside. Since then it has been coming out in the other places mentioned above.

Hello ma'am, I'm sorry to read about your! Can't determine for sure if it is the virus causing the foot and mouth disease The use of a fragrance free moisturizer like Aveeno and a mild soap like Dove without fragrance should be recommended for the next few days. Apply the cream as often as needed during the day. After showering, avoid rubbing the skin to dry it, instead, lightly pat it to leave a thin layer of moisture and apply the moisturizer within 5 minutes after getting out of the shower Check with your pharmacist to see if an anti-histamine can be tried depending on the extent of your symptoms If the situation persists for more than 7 days or worsens, a doctor should be consulted for a thorough evaluation of your condition as a precaution. I hope this has been helpful to you, and if you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask! Tom Samaha, Pharmacist
