does anyone know how many times you can get chicken pox. my 5 year old had them when about 18 months old then again at 4 and now i think he has then again. started about 3 days ago with a few on his neck now in his hair on torso and arms and legs and face.

Twice if the first time was not very bad or was a baby. There's low immunity if it was a mild case.
