Psychiatrist,  's  Response
Hello,

Although you diagnosed the condition it does not mean that hand mouth and foot disease is the only differential diagnosis.

There is good possibility that she suffers from viral illness with rash and she should be investigated without delay. I request you to see a doctor as soon as possible.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Ashok Kumar, Psychiatrist
