Chickenpox

[Elly]

Woke up this morning to find back and arms covered in red marks at first I thought they were bites but i have been told its chickenpox. Never had them before and I just want to scratch but I can't.

I've got so stuff to put it but it's so itchy and My head is killing. Not a great start to my week and I've got so much to do at work! One of the downsides to working in retail I supposed, we get all the colds and anything else that's going around.

Has anyone else had them or recommend something to help with the itchyness?

unlucky getting chickenpox. Hope it clears up quickly as it's a bitch.

I find that sudocrem helps with anything that itches

When I had them years ago my mum bought some canomine lotion it's a thick white cream. U put it on with cotton wall what ever u do don't pick them cos the scar

oh no. Not good.

I seem to remember being covered in camomile lotion when i was little. Although, things may have improved since then

Nope the docs still recommend the same old stuff.

I had chicken pox maybe 4 years ago... It's horrible as an adult and now I have to look after Elly
