In my diagnostic centre, Yesterday, my one staff developed chickenpox, and today his whole body is covered with rashes. This morning, I suddenly noticed 2–3 similar spots on my body. I had chickenpox in childhood, but I’m worried if I am getting it again. Two doctors in my clinic here gave different advice — one prescribed Doxt XL 100, and another advised Acyclovir and calamine lotion. What should I do now?
