Chicken pox, can I pop to heal?
I've had chicken pox for going on 1 week. I have a few blisters that still need to finish scanning over and one in the palm of my hand that has not started scanning over. I know there is a risk of infection but if I pop the one in my hand early before it is ready will I no longer be contagious or will I still be contagious through saliva and droplets? The blister is very small but I have a 9 month old daughter I need to care for as soon as I can. Thank you!
