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....

    • Walking around, it looks to me as if weedkiller has been used, as some weeds have been left in situ but are dead. However, most of the weeds which have been (apparently)  killed in this way are hardly likely to lift pavements, being things like Shepherd's Purse. They might seed around, but I'm not sure what harm that does. I would like to know exactly what is the remit of the council workers who are tasked with dealing with weeds in pavements (and in tree pits?). Things like dandelions which have taproots (but are hard to remove in one piece)  have been left in the pavement,  whereas things like Toadflax (which don't, and are easy to just pull out) have been removed.
    • Yet another recommendation for Casper the  handyman.   He recently completed some odd jobs around our house including installing curtain rails and hanging pictures.  He offered practical solutions to the issues that arose, was efficient and communicative.  Very reasonable rates. We’ll be using his services again and have recommended to family & friends. 
    • Tom is a legend, even though he supports Arsenal..
    • The seller hasn't been named on here, and it isn't clear that it was a genuine misunderstanding, given the contents of the OP. Maybe it should be left as a warning to others to try things out before you take them home. Or indeed before you sell them. If  something seems wrong, it probably is. It shouldn't have taken a public post to resolve things . Also, if the laptop actually belongs to a company, it wasn't the seller's to sell, regardless of how he obtained it.
