HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
It is possible that the lesion may represent either a cold sore or shingles infection.
These are two possibilities.
If the immune system is impaired due to an underlying infection then this can cause either one of these to pop up.
The fever would be due to the body's inflammatory's response.
I hope this helps
