He was feeling feverish but now his body is warm. He has blisters in his groin, butt, thigh, back, front, ear, mouth and face. He is complaining of chest and back ache, and uneasy feeling.

Pediatrician, Neurology 's  Response
you have to treat him with antiviral medicines (acylovir) about 500 mg 4-5 times daily for 5 days apart from antibiotics and normal diet with some analgesics (paracetamol 500 mg) can be of some help.
