How can u say if chicken pox is infected?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Infected: Watch for increasing redness, any drainage or fever lasting too long. The lesions from chickenpox should crust and heal quickly. Other symptoms such as a prolonged cough with fever or behavior change should also be checked. All the best.
