Varicella( chicken pox) treatment with folk methods and methods
Chickenpox is an infectious childhood disease of a viral origin, characterized by a rash of red spots on the skin, on which bubbles subsequently appear.
Varicella( chicken pox) is an infectious disease characterized by the precipitation of a bubble rash. It is called so because it spreads by air. The source of infection is a patient with chicken pox. Most often chickenpox is children under 10 years old. Infection takes a mass character in children's groups, spreads quickly.
If the child is not weakened by other diseases, the "chickenpox" flows easily and ends most often without complications. The main manifestation of chicken pox is a bubble rash, which appears 2-3 weeks after infection. First, it appears on the face, the scalp, the trunk, less often on the mucous membrane of the mouth. At the same time the child's state of health worsens, appetite decreases, and sometimes the temperature rises.
The rash appears gradually. At first, these are small dotted spots, which then turn into bubbles with transparent contents.
Symptoms: with the exception of rash, at the initial stages of the disease other symptoms may not be observed, although often the appearance of the rash precedes the headache and general malaise. Veterinary pox can occur both without raising the temperature, and with a high temperature. Pryshchiki strongly itch, scratching leads to abscesses. More about the symptoms, see here.
The susceptibility to chicken pox is recognized as universal, but mainly affects children from 6 months to 7 years. In typical cases of the disease, that is, in most patients, the diagnosis of the disease is based on clinical data. For laboratory confirmation of the diagnosis, the method of immunofluorescence( detection of the virus in the foci) is used, and for the detection of AT in the serum - RSK and ELISA.
The first signs of chicken pox are a few characteristic acne on the body and face. Dots are reminiscent of ordinary pimples, but some have tiny yellowish watery blisters on top. The base of the pimple and the skin around turn red. A few hours later, the blisters burst and become crusted. When the doctor determines the diagnosis, he looks for fresh blisters among the bursting blisters. New blisters appear within three to four days.
In older children and adults, the day before the appearance of blisters, the head may get sore and a general feeling of malaise may appear, but the small child does not notice these symptoms. The temperature in the beginning is usually low, but for a day or two it can appreciably increase. Some children do not feel sick, and their temperature does not rise above 38 degrees. Others have a high fever, and they suffer a severe illness. Blisters usually itch and itch.
You should call a doctor to diagnose and treat your child as a sick person, especially if he does not feel well and has a fever.(The chickenpox is easy to confuse with smallpox and some other diseases.) The child is usually kept in bed while new blisters continue to appear. Itching is facilitated by placing the baby in a warm starch or soda bath for 10 minutes two or three times a day.
Wash your hands with soap three times a day and short-cut your nails.
Chickenpox usually develops 11-19 days after infection. Usually, the child is allowed to go outside and send to school one week after the onset of the illness or two days after the new blisters have ceased to appear. Dry crust is not contagious and can not serve as a basis for quarantine. However, some schools require that the child stay at home until all the corpses fall off.
• A rash that occurs when chicken pox is easily confused with a rash that occurs in more dangerous diseases. If rashes appear, consult a doctor immediately!
What's going on? First, there are only a few pimples, similar to the usual ones. Then the skin around them blushes, the blisters swell, which subsequently burst and dry up, forming crusts. New blisters appear within 3-4 days. Two days after the new blisters cease to appear, the patient ceases to be infectious. The incubation period of varicella, that is, the period from the moment of infection until the onset of pimples, lasts from 2 to 3 weeks.
What should I do? To remove the itching, you can wipe the rash with cotton wool soaked in a soda solution, to grease blisters with greenery for disinfection. It is very important to monitor the cleanliness of the linen and nails.
The patient should be isolated from others from the onset of the disease and until the expiry of 5 days from the appearance of the last pryshchikov.
