My son is 6 and has had chicken pox a few years ago. Very badly. It included a hospital visit as it was in his eye.

Yesterday I noticed a few spots. On his right lower arm and hand he has 3. On his right lower leg he has 2. They are sore and itchy.

I thought about hand foot and mouth but nothing on actual hands and feet. He looks to be getting one on a chicken pox scar on his tummy too.

Any ideas?

Look like mosquito bites to me. We all have a few at the moment.

Quite possibly. He's got one on his nose now. There are a lot of mosquitoes about this year. They clearly like him!
