Hello doctor! If one of the children at my son’s daycare has chickenpox , does this mean my son is exposed to it too? What should my next step be?

Hi there. If your child has been exposed to someone who has chickenpox, the risk of him getting chickenpox is there. Your son can still get chickenpox 10-21 days after his last contact with the infected child. If your child is within 3-5 days after being in contact with the sick child, getting the chickenpox vaccine can help to prevent or lessen the severity of the disease.

Hi Doctor, bila patut saya bawa anak berjumpa doktor kalau dia terkena chickenpox? Atau boleh treat kat rumah saja? Anak saya dah missed suntikan vaksin

Hi puan. Kalau anak puan tidak mendapat suntikan atau terlewat, puan masih boleh berjumpa dengan doktor puan untuk pemberian vaksin. Sekiranya, anak puan tidak sihat, dan puan tidak pasti sama ada ini adalah jangkitan cacar air, puan boleh berjumpa dengan doktor untuk pemeriksaan.

Hi Dr, saya nak tanya apakah tanda-tanda anak mengidap cacar air atau demam campak? Apa kesan buruk terhadap anak-anak jika dijangkiti Dr?

Jika tidak dijangkiti pada usia muda, seseorang itu akan dijangkiti apabila dewasa, dan simptom adalah lebih teruk. Adakah ini benar?

Hello. Risiko jangkitan cacar air bagi kali kedua adalah amat jarang. Pada umumnya, selepas jangkitan pertama, virus varicella zoster (cacar air) berubah menjadi tidak aktif atau pendam dalam sistem saraf hos yang dijangkiti. Ia boleh menjadi aktif semula bertahun-tahun selepas itu dan menyebabkan jangkitan lain iaitu kayap (herpes zoster), terutamanya pada usia lebih dewasa.

Hi doc. My child got chickenpox before when she turned 2. Is it too late to take the vaccine now? Is she already immune to it?

Hi there. If your child has already been infected with chickenpox, she does not need to take the vaccine anymore. The risk of second chickenpox is rare. However, the chickenpox virus can still remain inactive in the body, and may cause an infection called herpes zoster (kayap) in the future.

Hi doctor, is it true breast milk can protect baby to get chickenpox? Cause breast milk also contains antibodies right?

Hi there. Breastfeeding can offer some amount of protection against chickenpox for the breastfed child if the mother has contracted chickenpox before. However, if the mother has not gotten chickenpox before, then the breastfed child will not get any protection against chickenpox.

Hi Doctor, how to treat the chicken pox rash? Should we put calamine lotion atau biar dia kering sendiri?

Dr Joann Rajah

Hi there. The chickenpox rash can be very itchy. So the role of calamine lotion is to soothe the itch. There are also other soothing lotions that can be applied. But most importantly is to prevent the risk of bacterial infection of the skin by avoiding scratching, keeping the nails short and maintaining good body hygiene.

Hi doc. How does chickenpox spread and how long does it to show signs of chickenpox after being exposed?

Dr Joann Rajah

Hi there. Chickenpox is very contagious. The infection can spread through direct contact with fluid from rash blisters or through breathing in virus particles that come from the blisters. It takes about 2-3 weeks (from 10 to 21 days) after exposure to a person with chickenpox or shingles for someone to develop chickenpox.
