Thanks for contacting Chat Doctor for your medical questions. I am sorry to hear that you have a recent infection with body aches and blisters. This could be chicken pox, but we usually see this in child Chat Doctor.  In young adults the symptoms are generally much more severe. With more lesions more pain and potentially with pneumonia. Unfortunately, the only treatment is to help the symptoms. Use Tylenol for the fever, calamine lotion and oatmeal baths from Aveiro and plenty of rest. If you do develop problems breathing then I recommend you seek medical attention. Hope I answered your question. Please feel free to contact us again for you medical concerns and questions
