Honey is a natural sweet substance produced by honey bees. It cleanses and heals wounds.Topical application of honey has proved valuable in chicken pox.

The skin should be applied with honey and covered with sterile, white cloth. It helps in healing of the disease within 3 days.

A tbsp of honey with a tsp of vit. E oil and ½ cup of aloe vera juice and essential oils like chamomile, lavender and bergamot (each around 15 drops) also reduces scratching in chicken pox.
