Chickenpox lesions

2018-05-16 06:56:24
I've been diagnosed with chickenpox and I'm currently on day 8 post diagnosis. The large blisters that formed are starting to look cloudy but they have not yet scabbed. Is that normal? How long more will it take for scabs to form? Will I be able to resume work 7 days from now?
