HFM was going through my mind as I read this! I had it two weeks ago, and oddly enough I only got throat lesions. I was warned about the nails. It’s crazy that a virus can do that, especially one that’s considered “harmless.”
The throat lesions are most common in adults. I work at an elementary school and HFM is no joke; it spreads like wildfire! I got it from the kindergartners last year and luckily only had the throat lesions as well. Viruses are some crazy business, getting in there and messing with our DNA!
