Chickenpox Treatments FAQ in Alexandria, LA

How quickly do chickenpox spots spread?

Chickenpox may start out seeming like a cold: You might have a runny or stuffy nose, sneezing, and a cough. But 1 to 2 days later, the rash begins, often in bunches of spots on the chest and face. From there it can spread out quickly over the entire body — sometimes the rash is even in a person’s ears and mouth.

Should you quarantine after chicken pox exposure?

Chickenpox is contagious for 1 to 2 days before the rash starts and until the blisters have all dried and become scabs. The blisters usually dry and become scabs within 5 to 7 days of the onset of the rash. Children should stay home and away from other children until all of the blisters have scabbed over.

Should a siblings go to school if one has chicken pox?

How can I speed up the drying of chicken pox?

Can Chicken Pox clear up in 5 days?

Can we bath during chicken pox?

What stage in chicken pox is considered very contagious?

Should grandparents stay away from chickenpox?
