I'll take Mystery Rashes for $500, Alex. Don't forget my favorites, roseola and HFM (hand, foot and mouth disease*). Nothing quite like a two-year-old with HFM. They're charming.
*A form of coxsackie, which I will continue to call coxsackie because it narrowly beats HFM in the "best name for a childhood rash" competition. Say it with me: "coxsackie."
