Customer question:

Watery goats - when should we go to the doctor? Anonymous customer's question

Pharmacist's answer:

Usually, most cases of chickenpox are mild and can be managed at home. Nevertheless, there are certain situations when it is necessary to seek medical attention. Consult your doctor if you notice any of the following signs or symptoms:

• High fever (above 38.9°C) that does not respond to standard antipyretics.
• Rashes or blisters that spread to the eye area or even appear on the eyelids. This may indicate an eye infection and require urgent medical attention.

• A severe sore throat or difficulty swallowing may indicate a secondary bacterial infection.
• Severe inflammation or abdominal pain accompanied by vomiting, diarrhea, or signs of dehydration.
• Severe rash or signs of infection include redness, heat, swelling, or purulent discharge from blisters.
• Confusion, dizziness, convulsions, or other signs of neurological problems may indicate possible complications such as encephalitis.
• Breathing problems, especially in adults, who are at greater risk of pneumonia.

For younger age groups (infants, newborns, and children under 12 months), it is recommended to seek medical help as soon as possible in case of chickenpox, as these age groups are more susceptible to severe complications.

If you are pregnant and have been exposed to chicken pox or may develop symptoms of chicken pox, consult your doctor immediately. Chickenpox during pregnancy can cause severe complications for both mother and child, so it is essential to consult a specialist doctor as soon as possible.

If you have any doubts or concerns about the symptoms of chicken pox, it makes sense to consult a personal doctor. Your doctor will be able to assess the severity of your symptoms, provide individualized home care advice, and recommend the following steps to treat or prevent potential complications. It is essential to look for specific signs and symptoms that could indicate serious complications and to seek medical help immediately if these symptoms appear.
