Hello, Welcome to healthcare magic. I understand your concern about your friend s health. From your description, it does not sound like chicken pox. Chicken pox presents with rash which starts usually on the trunk and then spreads to the arms and legs. It appears like clear fluid filled bubbles. From your description, I would consider the possibility of another viral infection called Hand- foot and mouth disease. You could google for images and check if they match. It presents with red rashes and fluid filled blisters on the palms, soles and the mouth, which could slowly become turbid pus filled blisters. It could spread to elbows and buttocks. Treatment is mainly symptomatic with Paracetamol to control fever and calamine lotion on the rashes. It will resolve in 7-10 days. Hope this helps you. Take care.
