Brief Answer:
The lesions in chicken pox are fluid filled.
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
I have gone carefully through your query and understand your concerns. I have checked the attached images. The rash in chicken pox is vesciculopapular, i.e. fluid filled. The image does not make it clear whether there was a fluid filled eruption that has burst. If that is the case, it could indeed be the start of expression of chicken pox. However, if it was not a fluid filled eruption, it is unlikely to be due to chicken pox.
Let me know if I could help further.
