This week, Sue Meyer ND CCH is talking about Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease.  This disease occurs in all areas of the world and it often occurs in small outbreaks in nursery schools or kindergartens. Large outbreaks have been occurring in Asia since 1997. It usually occurs during the spring, summer, and fall months, and we’ve had a lot of reports from our listeners that it has been spreading in their communities.

Typically Hand Food and Mouth Disease occurs in children less than five years old, but can occasionally occur in adults. Signs and symptoms normally appear 3–6 days after exposure to the virus. Some people may carry and pass on the virus despite having no symptoms of disease. Other animals are not involved. Diagnosis can often be made based on symptoms.

Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease is a common infection caused by a group of viruses and it typically begins with a fever and feeling generally unwell. This is followed a day or two later by flat discolored spots or bumps that may blister, on the hands, feet, and mouth, and occasionally buttocks and groin.   The rash generally goes away on its own in about a week. Fingernail and toenail loss may occur a few weeks later, but they will regrow with time.  The viruses that cause Hand Foot and Mouth Disease are spread through close personal contact, through the air from coughing, and the feces of an infected person.  Contaminated objects can also spread the disease.
