Leave it alone: Scratching the bumps will cause pain and possibly scarring. They can also get infected.

Hope CP seen by Dr: An antihistamine should help with itching, non-drowsy antihistamines are claritin, (loratadine) zyrtek etc. Benedryl tends to make subjects drowsy, but is good to take in the evening. A soothing lotion with calamine from your pharmacy could be dabbed on the spots. These suggestions only apply if your chicken pox has been diagnosed by a qualified health care professional.
