Chickenpox in children
Did you know that chickenpox is a common disease in children? It is also known as being very contagious to everyone. A child that is infected with chickenpox will develop several itchy sore like blisters that are filled with fluid. They will then become cloudy and scab. They will then burst which turns into a crust form. Some children with chickenpox will develop hundreds of these sore like blisters. They usually will show up on your child's face first, and then spread. They will spread on your child's scalp and the rest of their bodies. The bad part about chickenpox is that the sores are very itchy and irritating. Your child will want to scratch and that can lead to scars which will remain on your child for life. Within about forty eight hours of getting infected with chickenpox, the symptoms will start surfacing. Then about ten to twenty days after becoming contaminated, the sore like blisters will begin to appear. Some of the chickenpox symptoms include: fever, stomach ache, headache, loss of appetite and the sores. You can confirm your child has chickenpox by taking them to their doctor for a blood test. You might also want to bring your child's medical history if they are visiting a new doctor. The virus that causes chickenpox is varicella or also called varicella -zoster. This virus spreads through the air. You should avoid children with chickenpox or those who have just recently had a vaccination for it. If your child is under ten years hold, they are more prone to the virus. When you are older and catch it, you can become sicker as opposed to a child who is young that has caught the virus. A child or person who has had chickenpox becomes a host to this virus for a lifetime. The number though is kept under control by your body's immune system. Some infants will get partial immunity from this virus from the blood of their mother. That is, if the mother has already had the virus in the past. It has been known that children of parents, who have not had chickenpox, will tend to get it worse. If your child has chickenpox, they should be prescribed a lotion and also oral medication that contains an antihistamine. This will help your child from the
itchiness that comes with chickenpox. Giving them a lukewarm bath with oatmeal may help relieve their pain too. To avoid your child from this, make sure they are up to date on their chickenpox vaccines.
