Hi..
Can understand your concern..

As per your complain if your child is diagnosed with herpes causing cold sores and fever then only topical application of medicine will not be only helpful.

It requires oral intake of antiviral drugs in child doses to relieve from further outbreaks and reduction of fever..

I would suggest you to consult a Paediatric dentist and get evaluated for the problem and get treatment done..

Antiviral drugs like acyclovir oral and topical therapy can help in relieving the symptoms and preventing recurrences.

Keep a watch over the child so that there is no communication with any person infected with the virus as he must have been infected by someone who had herpes.

Hope your query is solved..

If you find the answer helpful please write a positive review and click on find this answer helpful as a token of appreciation..

Thanks and regards..
