See your doctor: This is one of those problems where a visit to your doctor is necessary to figure out what's going on. Only after a thorough evaluation, including examination and possibly labs and other tests, can your doctor correctly diagnose you and treat you effectively.

The scattered rash: Of chickenpox with lesions in all stages of development concentrated on face and torso are quite characteristic but confusion can occur sometimes with rickettsial pox, pseudomonas folliculitis and used to also be an issue with smallpox.
