eat well, and a variety of food for all the necessary nutrients...Originally posted by Ah Cek:heard cannot take black sauce. best to take plain porridge all the way till recover. -

Depends on whether you believe more in science or Elders...
As different people say different things...
Just like ah cek say about to take plain porridge, while bear says eating a variety of food for all the necessary nutrients and not porridge... -
well the point is more that chicken pox is a disease primarily of the skin that is caught from other people not what you eat so... as bear said the key is to keep up strength to fight it off. and keep his hands handcuffed so he doesn't scratch
if he gets fever or anything like that just treat it as you would a normal fever. fever's usually just a sign that the body is fighting it off. -
black sauce, egg, seafood cannot
dont let the kid anyhow go and pluck/scratch the pox otherwise got scar -
Avoid seafood...

DO NOT
1. Do not scratch the blisters which may cause them to become infected.
2. Acetaminophen such as Panadol, Datril and Tylenol can help to relieve body aches and fevers.
3. Avoid aspirin products due to the risk of Reye's syndrome.
4. Use clean and comfortable cotton sheets to avoid polyester that are too warm and fabrics which can irritate your lesions.
FOODS
1. Avoid spicy foods
2. Avoid chocolates
3. Avoid hot sauces
4. Avoid sharp and oily foods such as fried potato chips
5. Avoid citrus drinks. Take cool juice or liquids as it can soothe your throat.
Take care and live healthy!
