Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Guo Tao
Toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) typically requires about one to two weeks for recovery; however, the duration of treatment varies depending on the severity of each individual’s condition. TEN may cause symptoms such as fever or chills in patients, primarily due to staphylococcal infection within the body.
