Chickenpox

2 replies

I know it's likely different for everyone but what is the general 'timeline' of chickenpox?
Dd, 4, has it. We noticed the first spots yesterday afternoon. She probably had 15 or so spots then, on her neck and back.
Today, day 2, spots are appearing very quickly. Will they slow down? Or continue to pop up so frequently for the next 2, 3, 4 days? She'll have no unspotty skin left if they keep coming at this rate!

We had one or two to begin with and I think they stopped appearing at day 4. Someone told me a warm bath helps to bring them out?

Do not give ibuprofen

We've still got a couple of days for them to come out then!
No ibuprofen, we're using virasooth which she says is magic
