Q: Some say its dangerous to get chicken pocks when a person is adult, that it can leave the person steril(I think thats the word.)(that – We cant have children). But i do not find any information in the internet.

A: A good warm oatmeal bath works wonders. Try a little Benadryl for the itching, and some Children’s Advil for the pain and temperature. There is no cure for Chicken Pox, you just have to ride it out. However, if the blistered areas don’t heal as you think they should, take your child to his physician to have him checked. Sometimes these blisters can become infected after they burst which can cause pain and tenderness, as well as redness and heat, to the areas. In this case, he may prescribe an antibiotic ointment, if needed. Trust your mothering instincts….your mom probably went through this with you – now it’s your turn. (my mom is constantly telling me: now you’re paying for YOUR raising!) Have a great 4th of July!!!
