Chook Me!

What is a good way of curing chicken pox quickly?

My sister had chicken pox 1 week before me and she took 2 weeks to get rid of it. I am getting the chicken pox worse than her and today is my 7th day with it but I need to know if there's a way to cure it because I need to travel somewhere in 5 days and I don't know how I'm gonna look by then lol.

1. its a virus. you have to let it "run its course." if its severe the doctor may give you some acyclovir but its doubtful. get lots of rest and take lots of fluids. eat! good luck.
2. You don't "cure" it you just have to wait for it to take its course. Be quiet and lay around because chicken pox can have serious neurological side effects even much later in life. Patience patient!
3. Time and baking soda mixed with tepid water will help the itching.
