Hi all i can find various threads about chicken pox is guidance about the itchy stage - which was very useful at that point but has anyone got any tips about how to speed up recovery from the scabby stage as my daughter is convinced that people are scared of her and wont go out unless wearing a hat and dark glassess! whilst she can get away with this a little I am worried as she is due to be doing a summer activity session next week with lots of children she doesnt know and she is getting very tearful about it. Any suggestions for helping the marks fade would be very welcome

Poor little thing, they do hang around at bit, I remember being surprised by how long it took for the last marks to vanish.


Maybe ask the chemist if there is anything that might help? I have some stuff you can add to the bath...hang on I'll just go and get it...


OK...Aveeno Baby, Baby Colloidal.....Bath Powder with Colloidal Oatmeal....


It comes in sachets and is for the treatment of sensitive, dry or irritated skin in babies and children. I got it to use if mine gets heat rash, bad nappy rash when teething etc.....rather like the threads before about putting a little bag of oats in the bath, I do think it can help.


Otherwise, I'd say something like Bio Oil could help, as long as the skin is no longer 'broken' where the scabs are.


Hope she's happier about it all soon. At least now she's had it....
