My lg came out In a few spots on her back then the next day her leg and foot only thing is she's not got a temperature or feeling unwell just wondering if it is chickenpox, I did take her to the pharmacy and they said could be the start but that's not really helpful.

I would say likely, I'm sure it's this time of year weirdly that chickenpox does the rounds. My DD started with five or so fluid filled blisters and then by the next day was pretty covered. So hopefully by tomorrow you'll know. She also was well in herself, no fever or anything throughout.

I also had the same experience as poster above. My son never had a temperature or felt unwell and never even scratched them or found them itchy but he went from having a few here and there to being completely covered head to toe within 48 hours and developed the classic fluid filled blisters so if it is then it should be quite apparent in the next day or so.

@WhiteHorse92 my daughter also didn't itch, but found the calamine lotion itchy so I switched to something called virasoothe gel, as soon as I used it it basically accelerated spots from red dots to scabs in 24 hours and she only had a week off nursery!

Like bites to me, they're quite big?

CP are small fluid filled red spots, usually quite symmetrical. These look more like bites. Do you have a dog or cat?
