Hello,
The symptoms of your mother seem to be related to chickenpox.I suggest using antihistamines such as Cetirizine 10 mg in case of itching. I also suggest using an antiviral cream such as Acyclovir cream for local application.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
