Not a physician of any kind here, but comparing your image visually to resources available online, they do resemble monkeypox lesions at the latter pustule stage. The pustule stage normally lasts 5-7 days before the lesions begin crusting, a process which lasts a further 7-14 days. Once the scabs have fallen off and new skin is underneath, the person is no longer infectious. If you do have monkeypox, judging by the information, you’ll likely be out of action for a week and a half to two weeks. I would see your doctor at once.
