Home remedies for chicken pox

If your child has lots of chicken pox blisters on his arms or if the sleeves of his shirt or t-shirt irritate the blisters, it would be advisable to wear cotton and sleeveless t-shirts till the blisters heal. You can use the following natural remedies for quick relief from chicken pox blisters and for soothing the skin.

Apply sandalwood or vitamin E oil on the blisters everyday till the marks fade away.



Add 1 cup of uncooked oatmeal to a bath tub filled with water and make your child soak in it for 15 to 20 minutes everyday. This is a very effective home remedy for relieving itching due to chicken pox. You can also add ginger in the bath tub for soaking. This is another natural remedy for relieving itching due to chicken pox.

Gently fan some margosa (margosa) leaves on the blisters to control itching. Add a handful of these leaves in a tub of water and let your bathe from it.

Smear honey all over the blisters. It works 3-way by soothing the skin, lubricating it and providing relief from itching.

Douche your child’s skin with a solution of brown vinegar 2 times a day.
