Chicken pox help

Hi all,

My son is on day 4 of chicken pox. Its come on quite slowly and today is the worst day so far- the first day he's had a fever/ felt unwell.

My main concerns are-
Is it normal to develop a temp and other symptoms 4 days in (I thought those symptoms usually came before the rash?)

Does the spot in the photo look like it could be infected/ has tracking lines?

Obviously I'm keeping a close eye but I'm not really sure as it's a long time since I've dealt with CP.

Thanks 😊
