Apologies for the awful photos.

I’m a grown up who has had chicken pox as a child, but my mums just frightened the life out of me when I showed her by saying she thought it looked like chicken pox....,

It’s just on my tummy since last night, but one has appeared on my arm. Very itchy.

Please say something like washing powder allergy as I can’t have anything that keeps me off work, tempting as a week in bed watching Netflix is Grin

Ps I will goto the chemist if it’s still here tomorrow, it’s more to reassure me my mum is bananas please.....

Anyone?! Sorry to be needy. I’m becoming more psychosomatically itchy the more I think about it Confused

It does look poxy! Are they little blisters? It does normally start on the torso then appear in other areas.

Are they in a line of 3?
Could be bed bug bites. Will be very itchy.

Oh arse :(

Thank you for replying, I appreciate the second opinion even if it’s not what I want to hear. I might nip up to the chemist now as I’m just going to worry. Ds had it but I appear to of blocked out all memory of his spots!

Probably just viral.
.. That's, what they normally say anyway. If you feel well in yourself I wouldn't panic. Could be allergy... But I'd ask a chemist or your out of hours if you feel unwell and are worried.

There’s about 7 on upper Tummy in a random pattern. One on my wrist just appearing. Off to google bed bugs - never have I hoped for a more minging outcome! Haha! Thank you!

I’ve been poorly for about a month over Xmas, just run down, but feel okay now - I’m just concerned as work with 2 pregnant women and my sister is immune compromised so I would need to know pretty soon for them.

You don't want them to be bed bug bites. Any other option is better than that!

Haggisfish · 11/01/2020 21:20

If they keep popping up it’s a possibility! Post some more pics tomorrow.

MsJaneAusten · 11/01/2020 21:20

You definitely don’t want them to be bed bugs. Chicken pox will be easier to deal with than getting rid of the blighters!
