Hey Sera
Sorry to hear that Luke had chicken pox! I might be too late now but when i had it a few years ago the chemist lady said to use aloe vera cooling gel instead of calamine which dries the scabs out and can scar.

oh my goodness your 28 weeks already! CONGRATULATIONS on another boy thats great news! ]]> Wed, 09 Sep 2009 20:03:42 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28509&PID=770677&title=chicken-pox#770677 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28509&PID=764667&title=chicken-pox#764667 Author: LJsmum

thanks for that we have that pine stuff that i will try.

In looking on the internet i found adding a cup of baking soda to the bath is supposed to help with the itch too so will try that.

Also found aleo vera gel can help so off to buy a bottle.!]]> Thu, 03 Sep 2009 14:13:02 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28509&PID=764667&title=chicken-pox#764667 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28509&PID=764341&title=chicken-pox#764341 Author: LittleBug

My pharmacist said that it's not recommended to use calamine lotion for chickenpox anymore because it can cause scarring. No idea if that's true or not...

Anyway we got some pinetarsol bath stuff which helped, and we also got some lorapaed (sp?) which is a non-drowsy antihistamine that you can buy over the counter at pharmacies, which is meant to help with the itch, etc. That really seemed to take the edge off.

just wondering if anyones used anything other than calamine lotion on the spots?
that has been effective stopping the itch and clearing them up.

thanks ]]> Wed, 02 Sep 2009 19:50:52 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28509&PID=764035&title=chicken-pox#764035
