A member asked:

I am having high fever, chills, and blisters. what should i do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See a physician: These are the signs of several infections, including herpes (cold sores) and other viral infections. They can be treated effectively but one needs to see a physician for consultation. Taking over-the-counter medications for fever relief would be appropriate as first step. Your physician will determine further therapy.
