What Are The Symptoms And Treatment For Chickenpox?

Hi doctor! All of my siblings had chickenpox recently. I am 23yrs old and I suspect that I have chickenpox.But there are no lesions in my body yet, I just thought there might be in my stomach and intestine. I feel pain in stomach. I also have cold and cough. What should I do to confirm that it really is chickenpox.

Hello,

Chickenpox, patients present with fever, malaise with rash characterized by maculopapular, vesicles and scab in various stages of evolution. For diagnostic purposes, a swab is taken from the active lesion at different stages and confirmed it in virology lab.

So first of all note down if any symptoms present or not. If symptoms then go for lesions. So you are not having any symptoms, no lesions, so no Chickenpox. As far as concerned about pain in the stomach may be due to tension or hyperacidity caused by tension.


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

Regards,
Dr. Het Ram Bishnoi
