My son possibly has chicken pox. The bumps look like insect bites but there are many of them and he complains of aches. Is this possible? If so how long will it last?

Even with the vaccine it is possible for your child to get chicken pox, it should be milder than it usually would though. There are certain meds that a child shouldn't take when he has chicken pox, time to go to the doctor. Also, calamine lotion works great for itching, so does a warm bath with baking soda.
Good luck.
