sounds like chicken pox.

Answer by twiggy
looks like hes got them then..but if an adult gets them it will go into shingles...and can be serious...and make you very ill...ask your doctor

Answer by mgnlok
if he was exposed most likely he will contract them also and if you have not had them you will also .they have a incubation period of about 10 days

Answer by F
Probably less than a week. He could get shingles instead of chicken pox if he's an adult...very painful. Get a doctor to check him out.

Answer by dumplingmuffin
if he does have chicken pox,he will not get shingles,chicken pox does not usually have white heads just water blisters that then scabs over
