Not all red spots would be considered chickenpox. It could be a simple rash, or infection. See your healthcare provider for an accurate diagnosis and treatment of your rash.

Chickenpox usually starts with feverish-like illness, or a cold. The illness usually lasts about a week, to two weeks, and it is very common amongst young children, although older youth and adult are able to have it, although it is quite uncommon.

The hallmark of the chickenpox rash is finding bumps in various stages at the same time, including blisters, sores, and scabs. Red bumps that don't meet this criterion are not likely to be chickenpox.
