What Causes Hands And Feet Lumps With Itching And Blisters?
My two kids one who is a boy of 3 years old and my little girl who soon to be 2 have shared symptoms. They have little bumps on there hands and feet they itch a lot and now my little boy has huge blisters growing on his feet. I have taken them to a free dr. And still nothing they said it was with their wheezing. But I to have been itching constantly and i dont know what else to do. Please help me.
Are they having fever also? Can you send a picture of the lesion? Blisters on hands and feet, especially when both are affected, are likely to be from a viral illness. This can happen in conditions like HFMD (hand foot mouth disease). This just needs supportive measures with antihistamines to relieve itching and paracetamol for fever or pain if any.
I used to give antihistamines like levocetirizine or hydroxyzine syrup for 3-5 days. Applying calamine lotion can soothe the area. Take them to a pediatrician if lesions are not getting better in 3 days, or they develops high grade fever with lethargy and poor feeding.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
