What Causes Fever And Multiple Sores In A Child?
My 3 year old son has been fevered for 4 days and now has a low grade fever,100.00, today. He has sores through his mouth. A big one on his cheek and lip, two under his lip, and some on his tongue. He has been extremely cranky and seems achy all over. His breath has a horrible odor too. He threw up this evening and it smelled like his bad breath that he has had all week. He is so uncomfortable and the sores in his mouth bother him a lot.

Hi...by what you say I feel that it could be a pyoderma or any other skin and soft tissue infection or a viral exanthem.
