It is unlikely to have hand foot mouth disease in your age. Your symptoms are suggestive of viral upper respiratory tract infection which is a common type of throat and nose infection. You may need to take antibiotics, anti cold medicines, over the counter analgesics and antiseptic mouth gargle for few days
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
