Hand, Foot & Mouth Disease

Leonitus started having fever last Wed night; Daddy and Mommy brought him to our pediatrician who gave him some paracetamol. But he was still having fever on and off and he was looking so listless on Saturday that made Mommy really worried.

So off they went to KKH, where Leonitus had his finger pricked for the first time to do a blood test.


Before the needle.


After the needle.


Unfortunately it wasn't very serious, just Hand, Foot & Mouth Disease, the doctor at KKH told Mommy.

But it was really strange, because Leonitus didn't have rashes until the fever subsided a day later and all the rashes can be found anywhere except his hands and feet and the rashes didn't even look like anything we saw from the internet. (*Scratch head)



So... is it still Hand, Foot & Mouth Disease or... it looks to me more like Head, Shoulder and Tummy Disease.
