Hi... I understand your concern. But skin conditions are best diagnosed and treated only after seeing them directly. I suggest you upload some pictures of the same lesions on this website and get back to me, so that I will be able to get you more scientifically.
By what you say this looks like a simple viral exanthem. But unless I see them, I will not be able to rule out or rule in, hand foot mouth disease or any type of specific viral exanthem. Hope this helps.
