I have Chicken pox and my mom is buying Aveeno oatmeal bath treatment, is that good?I got the chicken pox recently-Sunday Morning, and it is now Wednesday evening. I am 12 years old and my chicken pox are spreading everywhere the most is on my face! I dont have that much on my stomach but a lot on my back I have some on the private area and huge looking boils on my thighs and some on my arms and armpits, so is it okay if I take a bath in Aveeno Oatmeal? btw does the water have to be cold, hot,or lukewarm? and how long do I have to soak my body in it? thanks for helping :)

it's good and should help. cold water's best and you should soak for about 30 minutes.

Answer by horsebarn_mom
Aveeno oatmeal is great for chicken pox. You can have the water ANY temp you want and stay in as long as you want. The longer the better..you can always add more water.

Aveeno Oatmeal bath will help soothe the itchiness associated with chickenpox.
Soak your body in it 3 or 4 times a day, depending on how itchy you are.
Use lukewarm water.....hot water will make you itch more and cold will just be plain uncomfortable.
And don't scratch your chickenpox.....it may cause scarring.
Hope you heal fast! : )
Get the facts on the chickenpox vaccine, treatment, causes (varicella zoster virus, VZV), symptoms and signs (itchy, red rash).
