Chicken Pox Question?What can soothe chicken pox? Any home remedies ?
Answer by Art B
aveeno oatmeal bath from walmart or calamine lotion applied to the sores helps too
Answer by cbrat1554
As suggested, the Aveeno Oatmeal bath works well...also, if you can't use Calamine lotion (that pink color can sometimes stain clothing) try Banana Boat Aloe Vera gel, very soothing, smells nice and no pink color!

Chickenpox is an acute, systemic, usually childhood infection caused by the varicella-zoster virus (human herpesvirus type 3). It usually begins with mild constitutional symptoms that are followed shortly by skin lesions appearing in crops and characterized by macules, papules, vesicles, and crusting. Patients at risk of severe neurologic or other systemic complications (eg, pneumonia) include adults, newborns, and patients who are immunocompromised or have certain underlying medical conditions. Diagnosis is clinical. Those at risk of severe complications receive postexposure prophylaxis with immune globulins, and, if disease develops, treatment with antiviral drugs (eg, valacyclovir, famciclovir, acyclovir). Vaccination provides effective prevention.

Answer by Bubbles
the only thing that works is calamine lotion, it stops the itching as soon as it is put on.
Get the facts on the chickenpox vaccine, treatment, causes (varicella zoster virus, VZV), symptoms and signs (itchy, red rash).
