What should you pay attention to if your baby has chickenpox? Tips for relieving chickenpox itching!

Question 1: My child has chickenpox. Today is the fourth day. Our doctor prescribes some medicine and acyclovir ointment, but the child says it is very itchy. I would like to ask the doctor if he has any other anti-itch medicine? Can we continue to drink the Four Seasons Antiviral prescribed by our doctor? Dr. Yang Yafeng answered: Mild chickenpox is a self-limiting disease and can be cured in about 10 days. The rash usually scabs without leaving any scars. But the itching is unbearable, and almost all babies will scratch uncontrollably, causing infection. So in this case, parents can use calamine lotion or paeonol to relieve the baby\’s itching. (Note! Once chickenpox breaks out, you cannot apply calamine lotion.) Also, chickenpox is a herpes virus infection and requires antiviral treatment, so you can continue to drink Four Seasons Antiviral. Question 2: Hello, Director Cui, my baby is exclusively breastfed and is currently three and a half months old. Recently, my baby has diarrhea eight or nine times a day. After taking Smecta and probiotics, it seems that it is not ideal. He still has diarrhea six times in the past two days. What is happening? The baby\’s stool is not watery, sometimes it is green, sometimes it is yellow, there are milk flaps and sticky strips. Dr. Cui Lixia answered: Changes in the frequency and characteristics of a child\’s stool are diarrhea. Currently, it is recommended to take Bacillus cereus, half a tube at a time, three times a day. Question 3: The baby is 3 and a half years old. There is a lot of eye mucus on his eyes, his eyelashes are stuck, and he also has nasal congestion, nasal mucus, and bad breath. Dr. Xu Lijuan answered: This is indigestion. It is recommended that the child take chicken gizzard powder and amoxicillin granules, combined with tobramycin eye drops for relief.
