A 3-week old girl comes to an emergency room with vesicular eruptions and recent mild nasal congestion and fussiness. What’s the diagnosis?

A 5-month-old previously healthy, full-term female presented to a pediatric emergency department with 2 weeks of left leg swelling. Her parents denied any history of trauma, pain, fevers, weight loss, and easy bruising or bleeding, and family history was negative for cancer. The patient had been feeding and eliminating well.
