Does he have anything on hand and foot? It sounds like hand foot mouth disease! My daughter had it!
yeah i was thinking hand foot mouth bc how easy and common it is to get it. It is anywhere else
@Nicole hand foot mouth disease, it is a viral disease . Very common. Treatment in just conservative . You can give him some Tylenol or ibuprofen 30 min before meals so he can have less pain and be able to swallow food.
@Fatemeh i know what it is, I was suggesting it might be that to the poster
However If he has high fever and extremely looking sick I wouldn’t recommend waiting up to Monday. Internal medicine physician here and mom of a 2 years old.
Thank you ladies so much for your help I will take him to the ER tomorrow and take everyone’s advice in to consideration and scar no it is just on his face around his mouth
@Lindsey I’d suggest urgent care instead of the ER. It isn’t an urgent illness and you’ll be at the ER for hours since they’ll prioritize the people with emergencies. Not to mention ER bills are super expensive.
Hand foot and mouth
@Lindsey, so my kids had something called herpagina, and it was just around their mouths. There was no treatment for it, and it just had to run its course. This is what it looked like on them. It also causes painful blisters in the mouth as well as the back of the throat
@Carol💗💙 yes he has been complaining of the inside of his mouth hurting but it’s only on the inside and outside of his mouth
Update I took him to the dr they ran a test on him and it came back negative for strep and impetigo which the dr thought it was. But he put him on some meds that he is hoping will work and he has to be on it for 10 day 3x daily and then if it doesn’t clear up we will go back he did mention it looks like it could also be what you ladies explained hand foot and mouth. Thank you all for your support.
