chicken pox

Chickenpox is a highly contagious childhood rash disease. Two types of clinical manifestations caused by the same virus are the same as shingles. Chickenpox is the primary infection. After transmission through droplets or contact, permanent immunity can be obtained after infection, but shingles can occur later. The clinical manifestations are the successive appearance of skin and mucous membranes and the simultaneous presence of various types of rashes such as macular rash, pimples, herpes and scabs, with mild systemic symptoms. Frequent in winter and spring. The population is mainly seen in children, peaking at the age of 2 to 6 years. The incidence rate is less than 2% after 20 years of age. Pregnant women with chickenpox can infect the fetus 6 days before delivery, and the disease occurs within 10 days after birth.
