Hello,
The symptoms you have described do indicate a diagnosis of Hand-foot-and-mouth disease, though it is difficult to determine that without physical examination. Hand foot and mouth disease does not have any treatment. If she is having pain in the blisters, you can apply over the counter topical ointments for soothing blisters. If she does not recover in another three-four days take her baby to the doctor for reassessment.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regard,
Dr. Nazma.amman
