If you get medicine, all of it can be in liquid form. You can ask the pharmcist/chemist to fill your prescription in liquid so you don't have to swallow the pills!!

Good. I'm glad to hear you'll be able to see a doctor. That would be the best thing.
No, you'll be totally fine I'm sure. I really doubt it's anything very serious. Hopefully J_9 will respond to you later.
They may end up giving antihistamine (allergy medication) or antibiotics for a brief time, or something, depending on the cause -- but that would help you to feel better, and I'm sure it wouldn't be for long if they did.
Try to let us know after Monday how you're doing, and what the doctor had to say. I hope you feel better soon. Enjoy the holidays. :)

Oh, hi, you're here. Good. :)

The lumps are rasied and filled with fluids... o.o

Hmmm, where are they again? Behind your knee, your head, and your back? You only have 3?

I developed more last night. There's one on my neck, 2 on my back, 1 on each arm, one behind my knee, and 2 on my scalp.

They keep popping up.

Hi, Thomas, glad you are here too.:D

Now, let's see, do they itch?:confused:

There's an open and a closed one on my cheek, one on my forehead, and one on my left temple.

Yes they do. But if I scratch them they pop and get very sore.

Have you ever had chicken pox?

No. But chicken pox aren't rasied fluid filled sores, are they?

Yes, chickenpox are raised sores with clear fluid.

I believe you have chickenpox. I know I said in one of my earlier posts that I did not think this was the problem. But I have since changed my mind. Where I live there are MANY kids your age that have them right now.

So, best you can do, even the doctor will tell you this. Take cool baths, take benadryl for the itching, there is a lotion called Aveeno that can be used for the itching too.

But I do believe you might have chickenpox

Actually, yes, they do become blisters. Though commonly a bit smaller, they can reach the size of a dime. If they are chicken pox, you definitely would not want to scratch them, as this could causing scarring upon healing. As well, make sure your parents do not give you aspirin if there is any chance you have this, as this could cause some complications. Tylenol or Advil would likely be okay though.

Adding oatmeal to a bath can be good for the itching as well.

Thomas is right. Any person under the age of 16 should not take anything with Aspirin in it.

Do not scratch as Thomas said, it will scar. Also, this is highly contagious, so you will be out of school for a while if it is chickenpox.

You should get bed rest, tylenol or advil will help with any fever you might get. Your mom can make a paste of baking soda and water to put on the "bumps" to help relieve the itching.

Can chickenpox pop?

Why are they called chicken pox anyway. Did they originate in chickens? XD

The lump behind my neck is not like the sores, it's the color of my skin.

I took aspirin yesterday for a headache.. :l

Just one aspirin won't hurt you, just don't take any more until you are at least 16. You can take Tylenol, Advil or Motrin though.

I don't know why it is called chicken pox, maybe Thomas knows. There are many reasons, but it has nothing to do with chickens.

Thy lump behind your neck may be an enlarged lymph node. This is common with chickenpox.

Just do a Google search and you will find out A LOT about chickenpox.

It was a chewable children's asprin. I don't think that will do me any harm.
