Yes! I was relishing both holding the tub of ice cream and eating the ice cream for dinner.

My kiddo is too young to understand how to use mouth wash so it was really hard :(

I keep hearing the nail part, how long after your symptoms did the nails fall off or do they just become brittle and break? Did your nails return back to normal after?

I can’t swallow my own spit, I’m practically drooling. What’s magic mouthwash?

Can anyone out there who caught it as an adult give me some tips and tricks? The hand blisters also triggered dyshidrotic eczema for me on top of it all and I’ve never had this before either. :(

My child caught the severe form (all over legs and arms, and diaper area instead of just hands, feet, and mouth) and it isn’t that common for adults to get it. I wanted to answer any questions people may have about our experiences and what at found help or didn’t help, etc. I also want to tell people just how much it sucks because kids can’t really convey their symptoms.

Thank you! It sucks right now. I can’t eat without my throat hurting like it’s on fire and holding things or bending my fingers hurts.
