    Can i put moisturizer on skin?

    • @pharmacistv
      @pharmacistv  3 дні тому

      Yes you can put moisturiser, but avoid lotion because it is alcohol-based which can cause pain if your skin is sore or there are any open blisters on the skin. Use a water-based moisturiser like a cream or an ointment (fat-based) which is less irritating for the skin :)
      Hope that helps!

    Thank u for the info. Its my 8th day of chicken pox and i the sores in my mouth are healed .can i eat something that i like or not ? ..and the rashes or pimple are turning darker yet still little itchy ..would it go away by its own ..if yes then in how much time ..? I've been skipping school due to this and i m really sad due to it .

    • @pharmacistv
      @pharmacistv  5 місяців тому

      Sorry to hear that you have been unwell. Yes you can eat all foods if the sores have healed.

    • @pharmacistv
      @pharmacistv  5 місяців тому

      Yes the pimples will go dark on the skin and feel itchy maybe for another week or so, and then go away on their own -it can take a few weeks for the colour to go back to normal . Drink water to help your skin heal. You can go back to school if all the spots have dried and healed :) Always speak to your doctor or pharmacist for advice as I cannot see your skin to offer advice, so these are just some thoughts to help you 😊

    Hello Goodmorning, I just wanna ask, if it is ok to use Sunscreen when you have a chicken pox

    • @pharmacistv
      @pharmacistv  Місяць тому

      Yes - sunscreen is okay to use and helps reduce skin damage from sunlight. Stop using sunscreen if it irritates your skin.

    • @pharmacistv
      @pharmacistv  2 місяці тому +1

      Hey, you can take a bath - but avoid soap that can dry the skin. Try something from the pharmacy which does not have soap in it. You will feel tired and sleepy with chicken pox because your body is fighting the virus, this takes a lot of energy. Eat well, drink water, sleep and rest to help the healing process.
      Hope you get well soon :)

      Usually pox marks go away on their own, you can use tretinoin to help reduce the chance of permanent marks - make sure you wear sunscreen with SPF30 or higher, and UVA of 5 stars to protect your skin and avoid the marks being permanent too

      That's probably not true unless you have an allergy - make sure the milk is not raw, so always heat milk before you drink it, unless it has been pasteurised to remove any germs, like bacteria, that could give you an infection. I hope you get well soon 😊

    • @pharmacistv
      @pharmacistv  6 місяців тому

      Sorry to hear this - try to keep your skin cool like a cold bath or cold shower, use Calamine lotion or Calamine cream to help with itching on skin. The spots should clear in the next one or two weeks - if you get a high body temperature (high fever) then take paracetamol to help bring it down, but if that does not work please see a doctor or go to a hospital. Chicken pox usually gets worse before it gets better. I hope you feel better soon!
