Chicken pox problem

2017-05-10 15:50:27
Today my mother noticed few blisters of chicken pox. Yesterday she was having fever. She got it because very recently I have recovered from chicken pox. So should I go to doctor or should follow the same medicine as mine? Doctor prescribed zovirax 800 for me. Also pl tell if medicine would work on her body now or not. Today is the 2 nd day.
