Fever
In the fourth and fifth stages of a fever blister, the sores dry out, scab over, and eventually fall off. During this phase and any of the other phases, an individual may develop a fever. This is especially likely during an initial outbreak.
Medically referred to as pyrexia, a fever is usually an indication that something out of the ordinary occurs in the body. Although fever can cause some discomfort, unless it goes above 103F, it is not usually a cause for concern.
