Not immediately: If your 4 yr old is upto date with immunisations he/she should have had a chicken pox shot at age 1 and age 4 and is unlikely to have chicken pox.ry Benadryl (diphenhydramine) orally and apply calamine lotion.chicken pox is a viral infection and is preceded by a low garage fever,not feeling well and then a rash with clear fluid hitch becomes scabbed.the rash generally stats on the chest and trunk.

Question 6

little red bumps on back and arms and legs...could it b a vitamin deficiency?

Accepted Answer

Eczema?: This is unlikely related to a vitamin deficiency, and the location of the rash is in areas commonly affect by eczema.  Do you itch?  Dry skin?  You should probably see your doctor, but if eczema is present it should respond to mild, over the counter topical 1% hydrocortisone.

Could be KP: Without examining you in person, it's tough to say what these bumps are.  Generally red bumps behind the arms are called keratosis pilaris, which is a common skin condition that shows up as tiny white and red bumps along the hair follicles.  http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/keratosis-pilaris/ds00769.
