What Causes Tiny Bumps All Over Body?

my daughter went to the pediatrician last week with bumps on her body. He told us that it is a classic case of the chickenpox. However, 2 days later, in addition to the chickenpox, she started getting small, very very tiny bumps all over her body.
Now she not only has the chickenpox, she also has about a million small bumps all over her chest, stomach, back and thighs....we don't have very reliable medical service in our neck of the woods. can you tell me what this could possibly be?

Pediatrician,  's  Response
Like chicken pox which is a viral infection, there are many others which may cause rashes. The rash of most of such infections have specific characteristics and so it is really tough to comment without examining. Since, you do not have access to reliable medical services at the moment, you may upload an image on healthcaremagic and ask about it. Since there are several possibilities, I am not mentioning names to frighten you unnecessarily.
