chickenpox?

[littleme92]

Hi

I have developed an itchy rash on my body. I am 22 almost 23 and have never had chickenpox. I don't really know what chickenpox looks like so i'm not to sure if I have it or not.

Has anyone had chickenpox as an adult? Is it any different to getting it as a child? What does a chickenpox rash look like?

I had chickenpox at the age of 27. You get little blister type spots firstly that ooze clear fluid... eventually you're covered in spots, extremely itchy, and in my case, very painful. A doctor will be able to tell you if it's actually chickenpox or not.
