The pictures I have looked up show them as being clear spots, these look white just like pimples. She also has like two or three in the diaper area. Could these be chicken pox and if so what do I do? I know that there is nothing the doctor can do about them so taking her to see the doctor would be pointless right? But I guess I will have to if I cant figure out if they really are chicken pox.
Take your child to the doctor. My grand daughter had the pox recently and it was determined by a swab test of the mouth. Now, I wasn't there (at the drs), but they never scabbed over so i doubt that's what they were. I even looked them up in a recent childhood medical book I just got from the paxr clinic a month ago. IMO the diagnosis didn't fit the issue. But we got to spend time with our "baby girl". I really thought the pox was pretty much eliminated in today's world? Or is it the measels?
