Chikenpox is a communicable disease and the patient needs isolation should be kept in a separate room and other members of the family should not use the bed and bed sheets she is using till fever subsides and all the vesicles are crusted.so,it is better you cancel the trip and take care of her diet and medication and let her rest.regarding green mucus in eyes she needs to be shown to eye dr immediately who can suggest the required eye drops,other wise there is possibility of eye damage.her diet should be easily digested,cooked vegetables than fried ones,fruits like watermelon,musk melon.tender coconut water should be given daily.butter milk is better than curd. IN SHORT SHE DEFINITELY NEEDS MEDICAL ATTENTION.
