Hi,
It is possible that your grandchild may be having hand, foot and mouth disease. Sudden vesicular rash following fever on hand and foot may be hand, foot and mouth disease.
However, consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment. It is a viral disease and self-limiting.
There is no perfect treatment just symptomatic treatment may be done ok.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
