He must have slept on a bed that was infected. A bed used by many pple most likely or someone who had it already. Luckily enough it a once in a lifetime sickness. After this he can’t contact it again by any means at all….

We are currently battling it at the moment including me, 48 year old man. It will come and go naturally, no cure for it, u can only reduce the pain and itching by taking pain relief medications and calamine lotion, 7 keys, Ewuro and ogogoro, also drink and apply palmwine on the body and sprinkle thruout the house and on everyone. Also get Tagiiri and put it in the house

Probably it's d season, my kid had it, had to go and vaccinate others against it(has a different vaccine called chickenpox vaccine 1st $2nd dosage),u can't vaccinate him again cos he already has it.. it happens once in a lifetime, so after D's he automatically becomes immune to chicken pox.

Chicken pox is contagious, he must have picked it in school or among friends. Vaccinate any other child who doesn't have in your house ASAP. There is vaccine against Chicken pox which I guess you failed to give him.

Everyone will eventually contract chickenpox at some stage in their lives so the earlier the better. I got mine in my twenties and it shook me that day. I wished I had gotten it in my childhood.

The funny thing is it covered every part of my skin apart from my prick.
I got 3 on my prick and 1 out of the 3 left a mark there till today

Beware of the second coming of chicken pox.

But really, how else do you expect it is gotten? How is monkey pox gotten? How are lice, eczema, ringworm, athletes foot and other such things gotten?

The things that shock people are shocking.

7 keys Aladdin+ Calamine lotion will do the magic within 4-6 days.

People around your child will most likely get it too. Your child must have get it through contacts I guess school where they play a lot.

There's really nothing you can do, the disease will run out it's life cycle and go away by itself.

However, as a mother a parent, you get disinfectant and pain relief drugs as well as 7keys to Power to soothe the inflammation and to other members of the family to take antibiotics and maintenance of good hygiene

Don't allow him to attend school for the period. This is important to cub possible transfer to other children
God blessed you

Why not just save the boy’s life and rush to the nearest primary health centre rather than being inquisitive about the cause?

Don’t gamble the boy’s life by depending only on chemist prescription.

Visit a doctor once and for all.

What a brainless response.
Your little brain cannot also tell you that there are many senior medical consultants here on Nairaland.

madam,

must be your first child. This is normal. All my children have had chicken pox despite their vaccination. Some discomfort and head aches, but it runs its cycles and goes.

Please do not squeeze the boils. No big deal, but get advice from a qualified medical personnel.

I got infected with this infection immediately I finished from secondary school. It was so painful. I was taken to an hospital and the doctor priscibed some antibiotics to curb super infections by bacteria. The truth is that chicken pox has no cure, it is self limiting, a viral infections that goes on its own.
Re: My Son Has Chickenpox. What Must Have Caused It? by Ormorlehwah(f): 7:49pm On Jan 30, 2023
Go to the pharmacy and get ZINNAT or CEFUROXIME SUSPENSION syrup and CALAMINE LOTION. Don't put the calamine lotion in his mouth oooo, you rub it all over the body every 4hours, and let it dry.


Locally, you can get SODA soap and use it to bath for him. You can also squeeze bitter leaf and white ogogoro mixture, you use it to rub his body and dry and give him two teaspoons every hour.

Merci

Go and buy original palm wine and use it to bath him with bitter leaf

All children hospital advised against that drug

Also, could it have been smallpox?

Get Calamine lotion and be rubbing on it and also buy Doctor Aladdin 7 keys herbal mixture and be giving him. Avoid scratching it. It will clear within two weeks. He can only have it ones in his lifetime.
I had it when I was even in year 1 in the university and those two things was what I used. Avoid scratching it


I use God name beg u madam just use amplclox..

Don't try 7 keys oh ..the moment ur son takes it the rashes would come out wotoporioisky..

E go be like say them put rashes wotowoto for ur pikin body.

7 keys dey disfigure person abeg ..

Note: very important

Use amplicox for the infection , paracetamol for temperature swing , and vitamin B complex as recommended by the pharmacist ..

Use kalamine lotion to rub him morning afternoon and night

When getting kalamine lotion make sure the lotion is thick ..the watery one is not effective as u would end up buying more ..

Lastly use tetmosol soap ...

Lather his body with the soap wait for five minutes for his skin to absorb it before rinsing of the soap from his body

Use the soap morning and night ..

It will erase every sign of chicken pox from ur son skin so he does not end up with those dark marks associated with chicken pox.

In addition to what has been said, do not fall into temptation of bursting those, you will be surprised how they will disappear with time, but anyone you burst will give him scar for a while. I had it , and everywhere on face was covered with chicken pox, someone gave me same advise, but was too tempting , when everything finally cleared off, the two places I bursted was still there for few years, so please do not burst on your own, allow them complete the cycle. Thank God he is been vaccinated.
