Hi,

I suggest you to get back to us with an image of the child with the so-called chicken pox skin lesions. I am telling this because we need to first ascertain the diagnosis of chickenpox and then suggest you accordingly. Please do not apply any cream or lotion over the body as it might cause of the skin lesions to spread fast. Earache and sensation of nausea are quite common in any viral illness and chickenpox is also a viral illness.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Sumanth
