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.

Can we bath during chicken pox?

Give your child warm or cool baths with oatmeal bath products, such as Aveeno. This will reduce itching. You can also add a handful of oatmeal (ground to a powder) to your child’s bath. After a bath, pat—rather than rub—your child’s skin dry.

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

Children do not have to stay home until all the scabs fall off, since this may take up to two weeks. Youngsters with active chickenpox can go outside as long as they feel okay.

Can you get rid of an infection without antibiotics?
