Question
Can you take a bath on the third day of a pimple outbreak? If there are many chickenpox blisters and small red spots, and it’s very hot, can not bathing lead to other diseases?
Answer
It’s fine to take a bath with chickenpox, but avoid using too hot water. Warm water is also suitable. Additionally, avoid using irritating soaps. Maintain a comfortable environment at home and do not let the indoors become too hot, as this may irritate the skin and cause itching. For chickenpox, symptomatic treatment is needed, such as taking antiviral medications, maintaining a light diet, resting at home, etc. It’s best not to go out during this period. Drink plenty of water, eat more fruits and vegetables to alleviate the condition.
