Can you die from hand foot mouth?

Not likely: Hand foot mouth is a common viral disease that affects young children. If the child is otherwise healthy, the major concern is making sure the child does not become dehydrated.

Very Rarely: Besides the dehydration that is common, there is a rare complication of a heart infection-myocarditis which can be serious.
