Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease - The Continuing Saga

Posted Thursday, August 07, 2008 11:48 AM

Just when you thought it was safe, and that you once again can show off your hands and feet, it happens - the final blow of Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease. My fingernails are peeling off, from the base (or the sterile matrix, as I guess the nail bed is
