Hand foot and mouth: You could always contact one of the Healthtap physicians and send a picture, but if you have seen a provider and have been diagnosed with hand foot and mouth it would be expected to get some red bumps on lips.

Hand/foot/mouth: This is a virulent infection. Assuming Physician's diagnosis is correct, and there is no reason to think that it isn't, it is a self limiting viral infection. Follow the directions given to you at Urgent Care, or seek personalized treatment by your personal Dentist or Physician
