The chicken pox scars and the risk

Who can forget his nightmare of varicella and signs that would have been if we had succumbed to the desire to scratch away the scabs that itched? There is no child who does not remember those moments in horror, or child who can stand the itching without giving in to temptation even once. Chickenpox, of course, is almost always inevitable stage of growth, but be careful as we can not always manage to take good children to avoid their scratch card off the crusts. What can they remain small scars?

If you can not prevent damage by relieving itching in all possible ways (in my time they used talc mentholated), you can use creams rich in vitamin E, which has remedial effects on the skin and therefore reduces signs if applied consistently and promptly. Ask your doctor for a prescription to have the best, trying to choose the products as natural as possible and delicate.

It is also important to always apply a cream with good sun protection factor to avoid the appearance of skin spots, because the scars tend to hyper-pigmentation when exposed, even accidentally, in the sun. Remember to do at the beach but also in the city. This will help to remove them but not least to keep it far from clear that children without stain the skin with signs that will be most visible scars of the simple.

Finally, in the most extensive and serious, there is the possibility of using laser therapy, but in no case shall be applied on small children, to agree upon with the doctor only when the baby is grown now, and if a teenager has not learned to live with the small scars of childhood. The best remedy, however, is always prevention: control children because they do not scratch card is the most effective way to prevent scars from chicken pox. How it works? Keeping cool with more showers a day, taking care to keep their nails short and clean, without covering it with too heavy clothing or materials that do not promote perspiration and make them sweat, increasing the itch.
