Hi, chicken pox, when started to develop has not much of treatment. Treatment is mostly focused on what trouble is he having with the same. For itching I advice calamine lotion after bathing with warm saline water 4 times or 2 times daily. Always hydrate with 2-3 litres of water. Avoid oily foods. Always go for porridge and steamed vegetables. Get rest and sunlight. I hope this helps. Thankyou.
