I believe its a virus and is the adult form of chicken pox............ or something relating to chicken pox........... very painful and can hang around for quite some time.........
If you suspect you have it , I think you need to see your gp!!
Hope this helps

Thanks for replying, not sure have had painful neck and headaches going up from neck for a few weeks, and last night I have come up with a few bumps where the neck pain is? Will get it checked out tomorrow. Jeeesh, just something else to get anxious about.
I think they would look more like blisters & would be red & itchy
See your GP , try not to worry , could be nothing , I am always getting things , but 9/10 its nothing
Let us no how you go on

Yes , it is usually when an adult has been in contact with a child who has had chicken pox ...like anne says can be nasty in an adult , so should seek medical advice
May I add not life threatening , but you would need to speak to a GP
Hope you havnt caught it
love

Yeah as whywhy says its not life threathening , just painful........ i have seen it and you get a red rashy area, I think sometime blisters too,,, but what I saw didnt look like normal chicken pox......
Nothing to worry too much about though.......
