Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. as per your query you have chicken pox marks and acnes on face and back, need not to panic about it, chicken pox lesions don't leave scar as such until and unless you scratch them. Medications prescribed to you are very good to cur your condition. Try antiviral drug such as Zovirox it will halt the progression of disease and prevent further complication associated with the disease. Topical application of calamine lotion will heal up the rashes. Take antihistamine Chlorphenamine which is most effective for this. Eat green leafy vegetable sand fruits in diet. Don't scratch lesion with nail as it will cause bacterial infection there.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
