How to treat fever when having chickenpox

Patient's question:

I don't know what's going on, but my child has been misbehaving lately and crying non-stop. Even the hospital check-up didn't help. Could you please tell me how to treat chickenpox with fever?

Doctor's answer:

Generally, you can take medications such as Virazole Tablets, Ribavirin Granules, and Radix Isatidis Granules, etc. Then, have the child drink a lot of water and rest at home, avoiding running and playing. For fever, you can take fever-reducing medication or use physical cooling methods to temporarily lower the temperature. Avoid the child scratching the blisters. If the itching is severe, you can take antihistamines to relieve the itching. It usually takes about a week to recover.
