My kid seems to be walking funny, is this a normal symptom of chickenpox?

Yes: A fraction of the kids with chickenpox can develop a wabeling walk due to an inflamation in part of the brain. Talk the symptoms over with your physician & decide if a further evaluation is warrented.

Could Be: Ataxia or poorly balanced walking is a rare symptom of chicken pox. Was your child immunized? Need to see your doctor.
