Oh dear.

Chamomile cream or lotion, paracetamol (never ibuprofen as it makes the spots root deeper!) And ice poles.

Hope she feels better soon.

Have you warned the GP that you suspect chicken pox?

Most wouldn't want you at the surgery with CP as you could infect vulnerable people. Unless your DD is worryingly unwell I would watch and wait. CP doesn't require a dr appointment unless it gets unusually severe, infected spots or spots in eyes etc.

Hope you DD feels ok x
