Hi,
Thanks for writing to us.
From the description provided, these look like chicken pox lesions only.
As 37 days have passed since onset, lesions should have healed. However sometimes due to secondary infection these may persist.
Right now i would advise use of antibacterial soap to bathe
Do warm water compresses of the lesions to loosen the crust and apply a steroid antibiotic cream.
I would highly recommend a doctor's visit for further management
Take care
