Toddler & chickenpox

Hi all,

My three year old has chickenpox, I knew this day would probably come but my god they are everywhere! Plus she’s really irritated and a little unwell with them. She started with them on Thursday, today is Sunday, when should we expect to see an improvement? Any remedies to help, particularly with the ones around her mouth?

Thanks x

Ah bless her, the worst is usually thankfully over pretty quickly so hopefully improves soon! We found Poxyclin the best cream and oat baths. Just remember as well not to give ibuprofen.

@Happii thank you. Yes thankfully a friend mentioned about ibuprofen! We did an oat bath last night which really seemed to help
