Chickenpox is highly contagious and caused by the Varicella Zoster virus. Although you can get it at any age, it mostly affects children and last one to two weeks.
It starts with red spots which then fill with fluid, before bursting and scabbing over.
The challenge for parents is to keep them safe from scars which can cause scarring if not allowed to heal on their own.
Other items include a high temperature of 38C, aches and pains, unwell and a loss of appetite.
