hi,
chicken pox is self curable viral infection which persists for a week, if your fever has come down then you may feel better in another 2 to 3 days,
the pantop is for the stomach ache which you are suffering from, its not an antibiotic to treat the infection.
kindy consult your physician immediately if you get following symptoms
1) constant vomiting or blurred vision
2) if your lesions get bigger and become sores.
3)if you feel difficulty in breathing.
don't worry have lot of fluids in your diet, you will be better soon
take care.
