What Are The Symptoms Of Chickenpox?

I ve taken my child to the doctors twice this week, and seen a pharmacist, the first doctor said it could be chicken pox but not sure, the second doctor said she was pretty sure it was chickenpox, i didnt tell the pharmacist id been at the doctors and he said they look like bites/unsure what they are as there are about 8-10 on her whole body spread out. i said the doctors told me it was chickenpox he said it doesn t look like it. i don t think it is either. the first two spots appeared on monday, they are exactly the same as monday morning, no blistering, no scabbing. more have appeared, but they are very raised and very red, one of them is dark in the middle. do you have any idea of what these are? she had no temp, and is absolutely fine in herself.

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
A chicken pox rashes will be classically like a water Bible or a dew drop bubble over a red base. And she might have fever And sore throat.
So it is hard to comment on it.
But the number always increases and it will spread all throughout the body.
You will Ger chicken pox mostly once in a life time rarely a second time possible.

So better take her to a dermatologist if you are not sure.

If it is chicken pox you will know it in 3days because EOF the severity and the child will be sick.
