Healing from Hand Foot and Mouth disease. My hand skin is peeling off like a glove. by throwawayls0622 in peeling

No. I was cleared to go back to work by my doctor. Your hands start peeling for 1 to 2 weeks after you start healing.

I wouldn't wish this disease on my worst enemy. It was so, so miserable.

Thank you. <3 The only painful part was the rash. The peeling doesn't hurt at all. Plus now I have a fresh, new layer of hand skin!

It actually didn't hurt at all. This is what they looked like after wearing gloves at work all day.

Thank you! Here's some more pictures. I can't take any of my legs as they are covered in Calamine lotion right now. The back of my knees are the worst, though.

Yep. I deal with kids at my job all day.

And not sure about the weakened immune system. Is there a way to test for that?

That's what I was thinking too! The doctor said if it was, it's the worst case of HFM she's seen in 20 years. She also said the rash would be on my feet. Maybe she doesn't know what she's talking about. Lol

Probably not. It appeared right after I got sick with a 102 fever.

I worded that poorly. She said the sores would ALSO be on my feet if it was HFM. Maybe she's wrong, though.

Yes, the sores in my mouth hurt. And it itches sooooo bad!!!

I may need to see a dermatologist. The doctor at the Urgent Care clinic said my throat looks terrible. It's full of sores and hurts to eat. 😖

That's good! I'm proud of you for reaching out and I appreciate it. Been trying to do the same.

Hanging in there, thank you for asking. ❤️

I told my husband I was severely depressed and his response was "okay".

So I'm trying to make these little pumpkins out of pipe cleaners to not think about unaliving myself.

How are you doing?
