Chickenpox can also cause myalgia (muscle pain), itching, nausea, fever, headache, sore throat, pain in both ears.

Once you have had chicken pox you are immune from this virus for life however you may catch a variation of your particular chicken pox virus but I am unsure how common that occurance would be, you would have to be very unlucky. You may develop shingles later in life depending on your age, health etc, If you are sick and rundown you are more likely to develop shingles. A painful blistering spread along the nerve endings (for example on you lower back). If those blisters open up and another person comes into contact with them it is possible to infect that person with Chicken Pox as it is still the one and same virus.

No one knows where the disease started, but some believe it was first written about by a Persian physician in the 9th century. Giovanni Fillppo in Italy in the 1500s. What's more certain is that in the 1600s, an English doctor named Richard Morton named what he thought a variation of smallpox. Then William Heberden in the 1700s proved that chickenpox was different from smallpox.

It will vary from person to person in the length of time but the rule of thumb is that you will be able to spread the virus until a full sequential 24 hours have passed from the last time you had a fever. You'll need to check your temperature regularly to be sure it is down and staying down.

Yes, you can exercise when you have chickenpox if you have no fever and feel OK. You should stay isolated until all bumps and sores are scabbed over, so that you don't spread the infection to anyone else. You should also avoid getting overheated, as it may increase itching.

Most people get chickenpox when they are young, which is good. Although children can pull through chicken pox easily, if not uncomfortably, it is much more devastating to adults. Plus, once you have it as a kid, the cells go into remission in your body, your B cells produce antibodies for chickenpox, and there's a extremely high chance that you will never get chickenpox again.

But you can get it at any age.

The doseage changes each year with the seasonal flu vaccines based upon human and laboratory trials to see what doseages are effective against the selected strains of flu that are expected to be predominant during the upcoming flu season. The swine flu vaccine is still (August 2009) being tested to determine this by the drug manufacturers. It is expected that this will be tested and determined for vaccine release very soon.

When a person gets chickenpox, the rash will go away but the virus is still in the body and becomes dormant. If the virus becomes active again in the nerves, it is then called herpes zoster or shingles. This usually occurs when a person becomes older, but only in a small percentage of the population. Herpes simplex causes the cold sores or genital herpes.

The vaccine for chicken pox came out in the year 1995, because many people were dying from this disease. But only adults were dying from it and they say very few kids died from it.

The first vaccine was given in 1975.

Yes, you can go to your doctor and they can test your blood to see if you have the antibodies or not. The test is a varicella titer, or varicella IgG.

You are considered non-contagious when all chickenpox bumps are scabbed over. Many airlines will require a letter from your physician to prove this. If however, you are one of the lucky few and didn't get that many pock marks on your face, you can pass them as acne.

If you have chicken pox go change your socks

It's said that Abe Lincoln, Joe Stalin and Elizabeth 1 of England all survived survived the disease. But the most famous has to be the un-named milk maids who didn't seem to get the dreaded "pox" at all, and gave Jenner the idea to bang someone full of cowpox to see what happens. That someone I believe was a 14 year old boy, obviously not "important enough" to record for history, vaccination was born.

If you have to get the chicken pox...try to get them while you are young. The older you are the greater the risk. also, try not to itch the pox because they can leave unsightly, and damaging scars. If you are able to moderate your fever, avoid scratching, and contract the disease in childhood you should experience no hardship outside of the disease running it's natural course. Once you have chicken pox you can never get them again (however it does leave you suseptable to Shingles...but that's a different story). As an additional side note; vaccinations now help many to never contract the pox to begin with.

• Spraying the bed after a child that has Chicken Pox and has shared the bed with your child will do nothing. Many parents prefer that their children get the usual childhood diseases such as Chicken Pox; Red Measles, etc. Scientists find that when children get these diseases it builds up their immune system. Your child may not get the Chicken Pox and if he/she does then contact your family doctor by phone (do not take your child out or have others into your home) for instructions. If you or your husband have not had Chicken Pox you have a risk of getting them as do any other children in your family.

Edward Jenner

He noticed that people who had cowpox did not suffer from smallpox. He found a young boy whose family had smallpox and inserted the pus from a cowpox pustule into a cut. The boy survived.

Patients of all ages get the same 0.5 ml dose of chickenpox vaccine. If your child got a different dose, follow up care (in particular, reinection) will depend on if the dose was too high or too low. Find out what dose your child received, then call your local Department of Health vaccination department or your health care provider for advice specific to your situation.

Twenty years ago - it means 1986. Soviet Union was still on the map. 1986 - second year of Gorbachev's rule. It was a very bad year for Mother Russia and for its political system: the very year of Chernobyl nuclear disaster (April 26). In other aspects, picture was almost the same as during last years of Brejnev: steady deterioration in all spheres of life, but population has been used to it long ago. Dissident movement (not numerous at best times) has been practically silenced. Governing elite (so called "nomenklatura" - something like 3.000 families) was comparatively well off, but difference in life style and level was not as visual for general public as it is now. In capital - Moscow - situation was a bit better than in provinces, but not that much: severe shortages of food and custom goods, service nonexistent, practically no entertainment; no reliable news from abroad; strict restriction on visiting foreign countries, in wallets - only soviet money - "roubles" and "kopecs": foreign currency was obtainable only on black market and to buy it there was a criminal offence ruthlessly punished; everything belonged to state, state controlled all; state was the only employer. Communist party enrolment reached nearly 20.000.000 people, but all perks were reserved for its top echelon. No democracy whatsoever. On positive side: no enemployment, especially for blue color jobs; medicine was free (not for all kinds of treatment though); rent was stable and on low level; pride of being a citizen of great and mighty empire (it was rather large than great & certainly not so mighty, but only unlucky few knew it); no visible animosity between soviet nations (but Jews were disliked and Turkic peoples (Uzbecks, Kazakhs) were placidly called "lumpheads"). So one might say that for men and women who got nothing against unsophisticated, bleak but rather predictable day-to-day life this kind of existence was acceptable.Nowadays, on skin level, nearly everything has changed: no Soviet Union, no Politburo, goods are in plenty (but money is short for most people); one can travel (if you got time and money: a lot of people got neither); one can have his own business (a bit more theoretically than practically); information from abroad is available (especially for English-speaking); elections run with alternative candidats (most of them though are not alternative at all) and so on.Has a people psyche changed? Yes and no...
