MaryAye: Lol. Nothing to be afraid of. It means he never had it during childhood cos you can only have it once in a lifetime. After 2 or 3 days, he will stop itching and after a few more days, every scar will disappear completely. Relax. |

Remember to apply milk on it to avoid leaving black spots. I had it few years ago when my son brought it from school. |

MaryAye: Paracetamol for pain Calamine lotion Syrup Puriton or cetrizine for the itching Lots of fluids Fruits and vegetables Avoid milk on the rash and those sevens keys herbal medication and those strong antibiotics. Chicken pox is not caused by bacteria it's caused by virus varicella zooster 1 Like |

RoyalBlu: I don't think it is transferable from person to person o. It happens during the hot season. I contacted it in Gambia the first week I got there due to change of weather. Gambian heat no joke during their hot season. |

Go get original palm wine, and spray your house and give him some to drink 3 times a day. Get Ewuro(bitter leaf, mix with palm oil or dry gin) rub it on him daily. Then to stop others from being infected, there is this fruit that looks like watermelon, put it all over your house. ( Go to elewe omo in the market, they will tell you what to do) All these medications and hospitals won't help, I have been there. |

MaryAye: I've been through this before. I used drugs but it'd not work well. Palm wine was recommended. Immediately I took the palmwine, within minutes the pains and itches stopped. Next day everything dried up and I was able to bath. I recommend palm with my full chest for immediate relief. Give him palm wine and thank me later 1 Like |

SIRKAY98:Please tell the audience what giving him injection with chicken pox would cause. We also need to be educated |

greggng: You are right. The worst of it affects eyes and can cause blindness. |
Re: My Son Has Chickenpox. What Must Have Caused It? by seborrhic: 5:40pm On Jan 30, 2023 |
DoxxAnon:For superimposed infection. All that difficult to stop scratching can open up some of the pores,with those dirty hands you may introduce bacteria into the pores of the chicken pox. Hence the need for the antibiotics atimes. |
Re: My Son Has Chickenpox. What Must Have Caused It? by RoyalBlu(f): 5:45pm On Jan 30, 2023 |
GoodIsGod: Direct contact with an infected person is a sure way of getting infected. It's airborne as well. |

You write like Frank McCourt. Too much of eating chicken. This makes me remember my JSS3. 😂 It was the month of burning hunger and scorching hot dry season. A JSS1 student who went home for treatment returned back. After few days, he was admitted into the infirmary for chicken pox. After few days, his friends contacted the pox. It kept spreading, till it resembled zombie apocalypse 😂 In the midst of about 600 students, you no longer trust anyone. The school clinic was now filled to the brim and the school didn't sign students out for treatment. Immediately you see a funny rashes during public bath, you knew it was your time. It came like death, picking people at random. Once you've been infected, the news spreads like wildfire and they begin to treat you like the lepers in the Bible 😂 The scorching heat, the sweet and bitter scratch experience and worst still the discrimination made pox resemble the worst thing that could ever happen to humans then. When the school got overwhelming number of those infected, they had to start massive fumigation and administration of good antibiotics. If you've seen any scary Vampire movie, you will understand this story. Just a contact and you are gone.... When you see a funny looking rash on your body, you then realise that the world has come to an end for you 😂😂[/quote] |

stagger: Back in the 1990s, Chicken pox was causing deaths of children and infants.. The reason there is hardly any death from chicken pox today is because of vaccination. Vaccination against chicken pox reduces it's severity such that even when someone later gets infected, the infection doesn't get severe. Don't underestimate vaccination against chicken pox. 2 Likes |

Amayabor1:Shingles is when the virus is reactivated from latency. The first time one gets infected it's Chicken Pox, the second time its called shingles. Same virus, same strain. |
