What is the reason for fever after hand, foot, and mouth disease blisters are healing?

Patient's question:

My child had small, rice-grain-sized blisters on their hands and feet a few days ago. After some treatment at the hospital, the blisters are almost healed. However, now the child has a fever again, and I'm very worried. I'm more concerned about their health. For this reason, I'd like to ask what happens when hand, foot, and mouth disease blisters are healing but the child still has a fever?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, if your child currently has herpes from hand, foot, and mouth disease, it is recommended that you must actively take him to a formal hospital pediatrics department for a comprehensive and meticulous examination, and then treat according to the symptoms. If the fever temperature is high, it can generally be treated with intravenous anti-inflammatory medication. It is also essential to isolate the child for treatment. In terms of diet, it is advised to give the child more light vegetables and fruits, and avoid spicy and irritating foods.
