Want to confirm if chicken pox

2017-11-04 05:45:26
I have been developing mild blisters over my lower legs, few parts in the back below neck, very few on the hands and one on the face chin. This progression I'm seeing since the last 3 days with very minor additions since day 1. Few doctors said it's chicken pox and few are saying they are unable to confirm. What should be the right approach forward?
