Hi...Thank you for consulting in Health Care magic.
By what you quote I think it is hand foot mouth disease. Usually the lesions will take 7-10 day to settle and sometimes there can be skin peeling in 4-6 weeks time. Yes it can spread to other kids in the family. But in adults it is rare and it s self limiting viral exanthem.
Hope my answer was helpful for you. I am happy to help any time. Further clarifications and consultations on Health care magic are welcome. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish your kid good health.
