Onychomadesis following Hand- Foot-mouth Disease – Observations on Five Cases
نویسنده
چکیده
In 2015, an outbreak of hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) occurred in Romania and many patients presented with onychomadesis following HFMD. We report on five children (3 girls and 2 boys, aged between 3 and 12 years) who were consulted for onychomadesis involving the fingernails and toenails, all of them being diagnosed with HFMD 4-6 weeks ago. We observed no relationship between onychomadesis and the severity of the previous HFMD in our patients. In all of our cases, treatment for onychomadesis was not necessary; nail changes were temporary with spontaneous normal regrowth.
