Chickenpox

You should seek medical attention right away if you have given your child Aspirin when they have chicken pox. When Aspirin is given to a child with chicken pox, it can cause them to get a condition called Reyes syndrome.

Michiaki Takahashi is the one who invented the chickenpox vaccine. He invented it in 1974 and it has been used in the United States since 1995 as a regular childhood vaccination.

This is a trick question. The proper name for the system of skin is called the Integument. How do you know someone has chicken pox? By seeing the rash on the skin. So the answer is : it forms a rash or vesicles.

This is a layman's understanding of the situation. Shingles occurs in individuals who have already had episodes of chickenpox, sometimes many years prior to the shingles. The virus doesn't leave the system after the course of the original episode of chickenpox. The virus takes up residence in various parts of the nervous system, where it just remains completely harmless for most people. It is not clear what triggers an episode of shingles, but the virus will sometimes work its way down the nerves/neurons to cause an episode of 'shingles'. Shingles itself is not caused (at least directly) by exposure to an airborne virus. Chickenpox, however, can be transmitted as an airborne infection. Possibly, although rarely, an individual may become infected with chickenpox following skin contact with the virus, since it has high concentrations in the liquids in the characteristic body lesions.

Bleach solution and other typical disinfectants are more than enough to kill chickenpox virus on surfaces.

Like other vaccines, the chickenpox vaccine prevents children from contracting the virus that causes chickenpox. Chickenpox is harmless to most children but can be deadly and can lead to the disease shingles later in life.

Chicken Pox is considered to be a mild viral infection. And the younger the patient is, the milder the disease is. It can be more serious in adults, pregnant woman, or people with other health problems.

At the end of the series. You should have a titre drawn to see if you are immune to the thing for which you were vaccinated.

The answer is no: if you have had chickenpox yourself when young, you will have been carrying the varicella-zoster virus responsible for it ever since. This remains dormant, usually forever – unless you come into contact with someone with shingles, which can then re-activate the virus.

Shingles isn't spread by saliva, but by contact with wet sores or blisters due to shingles. You're not likely to get it from sharing a spoon unless the person had shingles on their hands or lips.

Chickenpox is caused by a virus. Viruses, strictly speaking, are not cellular and are not alive, but some people call them microorganisms nevertheless.

Signs of infection include leakage of pus from the blisters or excessive redness, warmth, tenderness, or swelling around the blisters.

Virus, as it cannot be treated with antibiotics or pencillin

The vaccine that is for mumps is not for any other pathogen. The vaccine is said to be specific. It can be said that the vaccine is like a pair of shoes that fits only you and not your father.

It is spread from person to person. It can occur in any environment.

Many people with chickenpox have a cough in the early stages. The droplets released by the cough are one of the ways that the virus spreads to others.

Chickenpox is time limited, while urticaria can continue for years. But chickenpox can kill you and urticaria can't. Hard to say which is better or worse.

It's possible, but highly unlikely. Shingles follow a nerve and it's generally on the upper torso. It's best to see your doctor. You may have a skin disease on the bottom of your feet. Until you see the doctor soak your feet in tepid water with a 1/2 cup of Epsom Salts (this is not table salt) and you can get it at your drug store. If you don't see it ask the pharmacist. Soak for 20 minutes. Do this every other day until you see the doctor. Epsom Salts is a crystal so take the 1/2 cup of crystals, add boiling water to melt down and add to a basin of TEPID WATER (skin temperature) and soak. Epsom Salts have great healing properties, but still see your doctor!

Painful genital blisters can be treated with an anesthetic cream recommended by a doctor or pharmacist.
