Students at a charter school where I work came to school with red itches on their body. The nurse put some cream on them and I was surprised they allowed them in school that way. I wondered if they had chicken pox or scabies. It was small red marks on their body, arms, and I remember the cream they had on was pink,... think it would be good to see a doctor as well as check with the nurse about the rash that is going around the school. If you had chicken pox as a child you shouldn't be getting it a 2nd time. However, if it's scabies they wouldn't be using calamine lotion on it.
Usually people with chicken pox are infectious for several days already before they know they have chicken pox (before the rash appears) by coughing. After the rash appears, the blisters are highly contagious until they have completely scabbed over.Generally the recommendation is that the child can return to school when all of the chicken pox lesions have scabs on them.It is not necessary to wait until the spots have entirely healed.hicken pox is one of the most common infectious problems in childhood, although it is decreasing as most children are now vaccinated.
