Advice on chicken pox

3 replies

Can anyone advise me please? DD is 12 and has never had chicken pox. We went shopping today at a mall quite a distance away as a treat for her first comp school report. Whilst we were there she was really lethargic, pale and achey in her glands (she said her armpits neck and groins felt bruised) gave her some ibuprofen as she kept wanting to sit down and drink lots of water. We cut the day in half and came home early, and she perked up this avo a bit. She did had a couple of random tiny red spots appear last night that she said itched if she touched them. Tonight she has a few more, although totalling ten to fifteen all over, not much bigger than head of a pin, except for four of them are much bigger and fluid filled :(
Help?!!!!

CP isn't usually "tiny". Not pin head size. More like pimple size.
Where are the 4 bigger ones located? CP tends to appear in warmer places on the body.
