Chickenpox blisters causing itching
I was diagnosed with chickenpox on 12th morning and fever started occurring on 9th with lesions appearing on 11th night. Since then I haven't been able to sleep because of too much itching. I tried calamine lotion too but no effect. Just today in the evening I started having problem in swallowing too. Please tell me how to reduce itching so I atleast can get some sleep.
