Background
Clinical Features
- Brief prodrome with Fever, malaise, upper respiratory infection, lymphadenopathy
- Common:
- Herpangina: painful oral vesicles with erythematous base which then ulcerate
- Hand-foot-and-mouth disease: herpangina + red papules that become gray vesicles on hands and/or feet
- Less common:
- Parotitis
- Orchitis
- Acute pericarditis
- Myocarditis
- Meningitis, encephalitis
- Some children get a desquamation of the nails around 2 weeks afterwards (self resolves)

Evaluation
- Clinical diagnosis, based on history and physical examination
- If unsure, see Pediatric Fever
Management
- No specific therapy for most; self-limited
- NSAIDS and cool liquids for pain
- Encourage good hand hygiene to prevent spread
- Some recommend Magic Mouthwash/oral lidocaine if not tolerating PO intake, although evidence suggests no better than placebo[1]
In infants, do NOT use oral lidocaine due to risk of lidocaine toxicity and FDA black box warning[2][3]
