A member asked:

Can you get flat red blisters on hands first before fever with hfmd? or there always fever first?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unusual place: The hand blisters, when they occur with HFM are usually on the regular skin of the back of the hand & fingers rather than the thick palmar skin.
