Antibodies are produced in response to antigens. An antigen can be anything foreign. You have markers on your cells that are self-markers. They say that you are you. You may be familare with the fact that you have a certain blood type. This is because of these markers on your red blood cells. They are called A, B, AB or O. As well as one called D (Rh- or Rh+). If you need a transfusion, you need a match or the antibodies that are already in the blood plasma will attack the transfused cells. When you need a new organ, your type must match as closely as possible to the donor or the organ will be rejected. If you have a splinter (an antigen), the body will fight it off and try to get rid of it. There are many examples like this.

How do you stop chickenpox instantly?

You cannot stop chickenpox instantly, you just have to wait. See, the bumps from chickenpox actually protect your body from harmful bacteria in your body. There is a fight going on in your body between the anitbodies and bad germs. When the anitbodies win, the bumps go away. So be patient, think of it as a war, because you can't control when wars end. But if you feel the chickenpox lasted to long, check up with the doctor immediately.
