Day 80

Been 80 days since I first started to come down with chicken pox. The scars that were left on my face have faded somewhat. They are now a pale brown, so I still look like I have acne. My daily routine has been to apply Bio Oil (or tissue oil as some people call it) before bed, and then in the morning apply Mederma (as always please seek your own medical advice). I am hoping that by the end of the year the scars will be gone. I have a number of craters left on my face and will deal with those once the scaring has gone.

dude, I'm 26 male on day 6. you seemed to deal with it well but this has been easily worst thing I've ever gone through. had to to to er to get pumped with fluids today. I think as of tonight though the worst is behind me. I just want to thank you for this blog as it has really helped me get through this. I think I have about 100 pox on my face alone so I'm kinda worried that my whole face will be scarred for life now. guess that's just how it is sometimes. anyways, much appreciated man. good luck to you in life!

Day 231

Most of the brown scars have not pretty much vanished. Once or two very faint ones left. Quite a few little craters but can't really see them on the face. One larger crater on cheek but thats ok, got used to it now. Have stopped applying the Mederma and Bio-Oil everyday. Just put them on now and then. Few brown scars on body particularly around the waist, they will remain.

Day 1

It was the afternoon. I had been working at my computer most of the day. My neck was starting to ache. I just assumed that was due to the fact I was looking down at my computer. When I got home, my body was aching, and I felt hot and feverish. I could feel my lymph nodes at the back of my neck were swollen. My arms were aching too. I thought to myself that I was coming down with a cold or the flu. I just took some pain killers and went to bed.

Day 8

A good night sleep, took no pain killers before bed. Felt pretty good most of day. A slight cough. Scalp and face mildly itchy but largely scabbing over now. Few yellow liquid filled boils on body, they were the late comers. Still spending time in bed relaxing. Had a shower, washed hair with baby shampoo, but body with water. After shower filled sink with warm water, and add Olay mild face wash and dabbed face lightly using a flannel. Felt great after. Lots people giving advice not to pick or scratch the scabs or they will scar. Whenever I get a itch that's unbearable i gently touch the spot and itch usually goes away.
