My 7 year old child has got Chicken Pox. I know that Chickenpox causes a red, itchy rash on the skin that usually appears first on the abdomen or back and face, and then spreads to almost everywhere else on the body, including the scalp, mouth, nose, ears, and genitals. What food should be given to her? I know that she should not eat non-veg and should drink juices. Can people give more suggestions please. Thanks.

my sister use coriander seed water to gives her kids when they got chicken pox. What she did was boil a huge amount of water together with 2 kilo of coriander seed and ask the kid to take shower with them. This will help the chicken pox to come out more faster and will help you to reduce the heat and the fever.

Make sure she is taking in plenty of fluids. Juices, water that type of thing. Let her eat what she feels she can eat. A oatmeal bath and calamine lotion can help with the itching.
