I am so worried about the red colored spot on my right arm. This morning one appeared and this afternoon, there are 3 already and so itchy .
I shot the part as you see, my God it's horrible. My head aches hoping I won't get fever. My nephew Charles chicken pox got healed 4 days ago and he's happy to roam around the house after more than 2 weeks confined in his bedroom.
I hope this isn't chicken pox, i treated the 3 spots. I hope no more to appear. Thanks and have a pleasant afternoon from Cagayan de Oro City.

Hmm... it is possible for chicken pox to appear in just a small area and stay there or spread. You never can tell what they'll do.
I hope you don't have chicken pox, though.

@cacay1 It is possible to get it more than once... I hope you don't have it...
I've had shingles three times in the last ten or so years. It itches so bad but is only on one side of the body. (I got it on my left side and left side of my back... It's contagious, too. I had to miss work for ten days while I had it. It can cause people who haven't had chicken pox to catch it.)

@DaddyEvil, it's contagious, actually I am so afraid but I remembered the tricks during college with my classmates when 4 were absent due to chicken pox and the 4 dipped onto the sea under the raging sun and that was what I did this afternoon, I went to sea near home the one I shared in my previous post and dipped for 2 hours. Before I left home, I took Lecit E, antibiotic and paracetamol. Thankful this evening no more itch and no more additional only 4I'm so proud of my gutsy feeling.

I hope it is not chickenpox but it could be since your nephew had it.. But did you have it before? I thought it only happens once... I never had it before...

@allknowing, we have mosquitoes outside home, but I was told I got this from dust or small insect when I went to public market to buy bananas and lemons which are now available. Then it's dusty roads under repair though no damage. It's politics tricks and agenda for it's almost national election here in Philippines.

@LadyDuck yes it's not as confirmed by my sister in law a nurse. She said it's from dust which is true for at 11 this day after my class ended I went to public market to buy ripe bananas and lemons for they're available, but the road near the market is so dusty and I wore sleeveless shirt. It's almost election so politicians repair the roads that are concrete. They're thinking about money to. corrupt to spend for vote buying. And the morons voters let their vote to get paid at small amount like 300 or 500 pesos. We suffer here now double problems covid virus and dust germs.
