One of my room mates had chicken pox last month. When she made sure it was chicken pix she left to her hometown. Now i got one red spot on my left arm. It doesnt look like a blister. For 2 days its reddish and a bit itchy. There are no spots anywhere else. Is it a symptom of chicken pox? Is there any medicines to prevent it? I have a flight day after tomorrow. So until then atleast i need some prevention.
