HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

A rash on the hands and feet that have a mild blister appearance may be due to hand foot and mouth disease.

This is a contagious disease that spreads through nose or throat secretions, blister fluid or contact with stool. It is caused by a virus.
There is no specific treatment, over the counter pain medication is used to help relieve the discomfort.

It normally resolves after 5 to 7 days.

I hope this helps
