Privacy Notice TV star Dani Dyer, 27, has reached out via social media to ask her fans for help after she revealed that daughter Star, who is one of the twins she shares with fiancé Jarrod Bowen, has been stricken with hand, foot and mouth disease. In her Instagram story, she says: “Star’s got hand, foot and mouth, and you can’t do anything about that, can you? I’ve looked and looked, but is there any remedies because she is scratching it so much she is bleeding.” With her twins crying in the background, Dani goes on to say: “I’ve got a phone call in to the doctor but I know they genuinely can’t do anything, and now I’m looking at Summer thinking ‘you’re going to get it.’ I just feel like the illnesses are constant. A few weeks ago Santiago had impetigo, then chicken pox, then Star got a little impetigo. Star is usually the sickly one, if anyone is going to get ill out of the twins it is usually Star. I can’t leave the house!”

The NHS describes hand, foot and mouth as “a common childhood illness that can also affect adults. It usually gets better on its own in seven to 10 days.” The NHS website confirms that hand, foot and mouth disease is not the same as foot and mouth disease that affects farm animals. The symptoms of hand, foot and mouth disease include a sore throat, high temperature and not wanting to eat, and mouth ulcers and a raised rash on the hands and feet are also common. The NHS advises sufferers to drink cool fluids to soothe the mouth and prevent dehydration, eat soft foods like yoghurt and to take paracetamol or ibuprofen to ease the sore throat. As Dani says, the NHS states that you cannot take antibiotics or other medicines to cure it. Sign up to OK!’s daily newsletter to get updates sent to your inbox for free
