How long do chickenpox take to pop out if you have been in contact with someone who has it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
10-21 days: Chicken pox rash occurs 10-21 days after coming into contact with the virus. Chicken pox is very contagious and travels through the air. People are contagious for 1-2 days before the rash appears and continue to be contagious until all of the lesions scab over.
