Im suffering from chicken pox from 9 days. Now all the scars have crusted and dried and some have even fallen. And no itching. I have a 2 year old to look after. Im just worried that she is suffering the most as I have to stay away from her. She was vaccinated for chickenpox the next day after I had it. I want to know if I am I still infectious and can I still spread it to others? Can I sleep near my kid?
