  • What is Chicken Pox?

    Chicken pox, medically known as varicella, is a highly contagious disease affecting mostly children and sometimes adults also. The rash appears on the body 2 days after the person gets infected. The rash forms into blisters, which burst and then scab over. The incubation period of chicken pox is 2 to 3 weeks. People are more prone to the disease during winter and spring season. Pregnant women, who are getting chicken pox for the first time, must seek medical assistance.

    Common Causes of Chicken Pox

        Herpes Zoster Virus

        Contact with broken chickenpox blisters
