Papular Purpuric Gloves and Socks Syndrome because of a Mycoplasma Infection

A 3-year-old girl presented to our clinic with mild, nonpruritic, palmar and plantar erythematous papules, and a few erythematous lesions on the oral mucosa. The lesions appeared 2-3 days before presentation and besides low-grade fever, physical examination was unremarkable. Vaccination history was according to national immunization schedules. The clinical picture was most compatible with hand-foot-and-mouth disease (most common cause coxsackievirus A16), and the child was sent home without treatment.
