The church in Motril where Angeles Bajar was on hunger strike has become the centre of media activityThe mother of Spanish football federation president Luis Rubiales has been discharged from hospital.
Angeles Bejar was admitted on Wednesday after locking herself in a church on Monday and going on hunger strike in protest at the treatment of her son.
Rubiales has been heavily criticised for kissing Spain's Jenni Hermoso on the lips after the World Cup final.
Hermoso said the kiss during the presentation ceremony in Sydney on 20 August was not consensual.
On entering the Divina Pastora church in Motril on Spain's southern coast, Bejar told Spanish news agency EFE the strike would continue "indefinitely, day and night".
She added the "inhuman and bloody hunt that they are doing with my son is something he does not deserve".
However, a local priest, who identified himself as Father Antonio, told Reuters news agency that Bejar had been taken to a hospital in Motril on Wednesday - the town where her son was raised.
"She had not been feeling well because of the heat and everything else," he told reporters.external-link
"Her feet had become swollen and she was very tired. She had also become very anxious."
EFE saidexternal-link that Bejar had responded satisfactorily to treatment before being discharged and was accompanied by her son when she left the hospital.
Rubiales was suspended on Saturday by world football's governing body Fifa, a day after he had insisted he would not resign and claimed the kiss was "mutual and consensual".
Football Federation regional leaders have called on president Rubiales to immediately step down, while Spanish prosecutors opened a preliminary investigation into whether the incident amounts to a crime of sexual assault.
Spain's Sports Tribunal (TAD) also met on Monday to discuss the Spanish government's request to suspend Rubiales, with a decision yet to be announced.
Uefa president Aleksander Ceferin told French website L'Equipeexternal-link that Rubiales' actions were "inappropriate".
In his first comments on the incident, Ceferin said: "I am a lawyer and one of the vice-presidents of Fifa. Any comments I might make would sound like pressure.
"I just have to say that I am sad that such an event overshadows the victory of the Spanish national team.
"We should change things."
A video has emergedexternal-link of Hermoso and her team-mates laughing and discussing the kiss on the team bus following the game.
Hermoso appears to be viewing a meme of ex-Spain men's keeper Iker Casillas kissing his then wife Sara Carbonero during an interview following his country's 2010 World Cup victory.
She later says "he comes over and hugs me like this" when talking about Rubiales.
In her statement denying the kiss was consensual, Hermoso said: "I feel the need to report this incident because I believe no person, in any work, sports or social setting should be a victim of these types of non-consensual behaviours. I felt vulnerable and a victim of impulsive-driven, sexist, out-of-place act, without any consent on my part.
"Quite simply, I was not respected."
She added she was put "under continuous pressure" to help with a "statement that could justify" Rubiales' actions - and so were her family, friends and team-mates.
'Spain is determined to end sexism'
Spain's acting equality minister Irene Montero said Spanish society must break a "pact of silence" and stop normalising sexist behaviour, though she hopes the widespread support for Hermoso following the incident will prove a turning point.
"Spain is a feminist society in which sexism still exists, but it is determined to end sexism," Montero said. "We are sending the correct message to the world, that sexism is over.
"Perhaps it would have been desirable for this pact of silence to be broken with more force and forcefulness. But I think it has begun to crack and that is a very important step."
The incident has sparked protests across Spain in support of Hermoso and against Rubiales, while fellow players - including the Lionesses - have also shown their support.
The United Nations Human Rights office has also backed Hermoso, saying everyone has a responsibility to "call out and challenge" sexual harassment and abuse.
