Suggest Treatment For Rashes On The Hands, Feet And Legs
Hi. My 22 yr old daughter has a rash on the palms of her hands, the tops of her feet, and her legs. The rash is red spots, not uniform in size, and she says her hands and feet hurt, not itch. She also has a sore throat. Her summer job is day camp counselor for grade school age children.

Hello,
I think she is having a viral infection called hand foot and mouth disease. It is transmitted from person to person and most affected groups are school or kindergarten children. She probably caught it there. No treatment is needed as it will resolve by it's own.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Olgeta Xhufka, General & Family Physician
