What Causes Blister Like Spots On The Scalp And Arm In A Child?
Hi, My 4 month old baby has started with spots like blisters on her scalp - a couple of other red spots are now appearing under the arm & in her nappy area...I don't know that she has been in contact with any children with chicken pox, is it likely to be that?

Dear Parent,
Chicken pox has rashes which appear first on the abdomen and face before spreading to arms and legs and is associated with fever. It is highly unlikely to not have fever in chicken pox. I suggest that you see a pediatric dermatologist who can examine your child and give a diagnosis.
