Chicken pox

2018-03-18 07:55:09
My daughter had chicken pox around three weeks ago, yet this morning she's got up and seems as though she has them again? Is this possible within such little time frame? I myself have had them four times so I'm aware it is indeed possible to have them multiple times but I'm just concerned with it only being a few weeks apart ?

It’s not possible chicken pox to be multiple times. Probably some other viral illness is there.
Next Steps
Plenty of fluids Paracetamol if fever If not responding please consult paediatrician
