Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Skin Peeling Around Toes And Fingers While Having Foot And Mouth Disease?
My 21 month old grandson was having an eczema flare up and was exposed to a child with Hand, Foot & Mouth disease then developed HSP (Henoch-Schonlein Purpura) because of his severe reaction to the Hand, Foot and mouth virus...the lesions have healed but his skin around his fingers and toes is peeling. He can t get into his regular physician for 2 days so I m trying to see if the peeling is from some of the lesions he had on his hands and feet or if it s something else.
Hand-foot-and-mouth disease:The lesions (vesicular lesions or blisters) usually resolve in 1 week.It seems your grandson is in the process of recovery without any complication.
