Any steroid like Omnacortil must be avoided in viral disease like Chicken pox. Symptomatic treatment for fever, pain, itching and local application may be necessary. No food restrictions. Some mild antibiotic for infection (Pus formation) may be necessary. Antiviral tablets like Ocuvir tablets for 8-10 days ensures faster cure. Consult a Physician for details.

These chickenpox marks go in different stages. Drying of vesicles, scab formation with black coloration, falling off of scabs, leaving behind whitish spots. Normally color returns to normal within 2-3 weeks. Simple lactcolamine liquid may be applied multiple times. If marks are on exposed parts like face etc giving bad look. Ocuvir skin cream can be applied twice a day. Sure to get normal.

I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you.
If you forget a dose of aciclovir, take it (or use the cream or eye ointment) as soon as you remember, unless it's nearly time for your next dose. In this case, just skip the missed dose and continue with your next one at the usual time. Never have 2 doses at the same time.
Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a treatment plan for you.
