What are the best chicken pox remedies?

Answer by  Cecilia (2828)

The only true remedy is time. Some people recommend a lukewarm bath with oatmeal sprinkled in the water. Others recommend a soothing topical like Caladryl. The important thing is to keep her from scratching. Anything you know that will distract her, reading, videos, games, will make the time pass faster.

An oatmeal bath will work wonders! They make special formulas for chicken pox, and a soothing bath in this will relieve some of your daughter's itching.

Vitamin E oil will help the itching. Also you can make a paste of one tablespoon of baking soda and one tablespoonful of vinager mixed into a paste will soothe.I have also heard of oatmeal baths. Just put the child in the tub and put two cups of plain old rolled oats(dry of course)in the water and stir them around.

The best way to relieve her misery will be to give her oatmeal baths. They will seriously reduce the itching feeling that often causes children to scratch and spread the pox. Also make sure that she drinks plenty of fluids as this will speed the healing process.
