I’ve been working a lot with my almost 2 yr old’s skin this week as he has the chicken pox.
Is caused me to look into how to keep him confortable with busting blisters. Gag me, right ?
The highest recommendation commonly over looked is, not to use products that would seal or not allow the blisters to breath.

We’ve been keeping away from Aloe and oils. The most common use while induring chicken pox is good old fashion Caladryl aka Calamine. Better refered to as “the pink stuff”.

A second runner up in keeping him content is Aveeno Skin Relif Bath Treatment. This product is 100% natural and not regular oatmeal you buy to bake a batch of cookies with. It’s Colloidal oatmeal, and although I do not understand the sceintific process of breaking down the oatmeal to the approperate stage. I do know my toddler is happy to soak in it twice a day.

The body is amazing to heal it’s self of viruses, even buy pushing the toxins out by the skin.
Here’s to hoping his healing continues !
