Suggest Treatment For Chickenpox With Sore Throat And Headaches

I have looked at the chicken pox pictures online and my breakout looks a lot like these, but I also have a sore throat and throbbing headache and I wasn t for sure if these 2 were also side affects. I have also ran a temp. for about two days and felt very, very weak and I knew these were side affects but I didn t know about the headache and sore throat???

Hello. I just read through your question.
If you do have chicken pox, sore throat is typically not associated. This could be a bacterial infection in the throat. I recommend consulting with your doctor to determine the correct diagnosis and implement the appropriate treatment plan.
