Blisters On Hand, Lips And Fingers, Itchy. Reason?

Hi, I have small clumps of red rash/blisters on my fingers and back of hand, now I have one com up just under my lip that looks like a cold sore, but I don't think it is because it looks like the ones on my hand, it's all on my right side, hand and corner of my lip, I have a bad head and I feel itchy all over, can you tell me please what u think it may be

Kind regards

1.first possibility is,HAND,FOOT,and MOUTH DISEASE;commonly caused by coxsackievirus and less commonly other type of virusus.

management for prevention;

-washing hands well,esp after going to bathroom,changing diapers and handling diapers or other stool-soiled materials
-covering mouth and nose when coughing or sneezing
-washing toys and other surfaces that have saliva on them

2.second possibility is,HERPES SIMPLEX;caused by herpes virus
