Suggest Treatment For Chicken Pox Pimple To Heal Faster
I have had chicken pox for 7dayr now. It hasn't gotten to the point where the pimples get watery and burst, releasing the watery fluid. I've kept it contained with calamine and anti-biotics and i take a mixture of water and apple cider vinegar twice a day. When is this going to vanish and what can i do to help my skin heal quicker?

Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you had chicken pox lesions since 7 days now which is mainly due to viral infection which becomes activated in body once right environment is there and poor immunity of body. You should try antiviral drug such as Zovirox it will slow down the progression of disease. You should take antiviral treatment with acyclovir as well. Topical application of calamine lotion will heal up the rashes. Well need not to panic about it, chicken pox lesions don't leave scar as such until and unless you scratch them. 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
