Are Red Blotches On Stomach And Arms Symptoms Of Chicken Pox Or An Infection?

Red blotches on stomach and arms appeared this morning together with stomach achew. Never had it before. Have been in contact with granddaughter with chicken pox but have had chicken pox myself. My other granddaughter had blotchiness on chest and back of arms which doctor diagnosed as a viral infection. Could I have caught this from her?

Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
As you describe, it appears to be the contagious chicken pox.As you are an adult, you may have it as a sub clinical condition.
I advise you to consult a physician for diagnosis and treatment.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms ranitidine, domperidone, cifixime.
Avoid spices, junk foods, oily foods.Take more of green leafy vegetables, pulses, sprouts, and protein rich foods.
wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
