Hi all i can find various threads about chicken pox is guidance about the itchy stage - which was very useful at that point but has anyone got any tips about how to speed up recovery from the scabby stage as my daughter is convinced that people are scared of her and wont go out unless wearing a hat and dark glassess! whilst she can get away with this a little I am worried as she is due to be doing a summer activity session next week with lots of children she doesnt know and she is getting very tearful about it. Any suggestions for helping the marks fade would be very welcome

Poor little thing, they do hang around at bit, I remember being surprised by how long it took for the last marks to vanish.


Maybe ask the chemist if there is anything that might help? I have some stuff you can add to the bath...hang on I'll just go and get it...


OK...Aveeno Baby, Baby Colloidal.....Bath Powder with Colloidal Oatmeal....


It comes in sachets and is for the treatment of sensitive, dry or irritated skin in babies and children. I got it to use if mine gets heat rash, bad nappy rash when teething etc.....rather like the threads before about putting a little bag of oats in the bath, I do think it can help.


Otherwise, I'd say something like Bio Oil could help, as long as the skin is no longer 'broken' where the scabs are.


Hope she's happier about it all soon. At least now she's had it....

    • Copleston centre hire for adult parties 
    • Most churches rent out halls for children's' parties but rarely adult parties, Christ Church only does afternoon parties,   The East Dulwich Community centre hires out halls to 9 pm only and all music needs to be on a sound restrictor as is in a residential area. St Johns with St Clements have a small hall but not sure if they allow adult parties. Nunhead Green has a newish community centre with a couple of different size halls. Most places seem to charge around £40 ph  with a deposit of £100/200 (returned if no damage or excess cleaning needed.
    • Hello, Recently there have been various comments made on the forum which have resulted in heated discussions being had. I for one, hold up my hand and wanted to personally thank whoever is keeping the forum going.. remember when it was likely to close. We are all adults and should known when it is right to continue or just ignore or if really feel it necessary comment via pm. I have had a long relationship with the forum and have bought, sold, offered advice and in deed made friends on the forum over the years. It is a public forum after all and everyone is entitled to express their opinion and is also free. I am not as tech minded as most but with the season of good will approaching and-knowing in this economic climate how many people are  struggling, I  thought it would be a lovely idea, to perhaps set up a just giving page to raise funds for a local charity who might appreciate a contribution towards their Christmas festivities… On a practical side, might just be to complicated to administer as I am sure all have charities that we support so my other thought was not me, as I am useless but to set up a just giving page and whatever monies are raised, perhaps contribute to the festivities that use to be run by local shops or whatever.. Maybe even use a local church hall and just make it special for perhaps folk that find it difficult to access events or no access for say wheel chair users.. guess really, one is looking for guidance from the church and of course volunteers. Shoot me down if you must or feel the need but this is my view and no, sadly I won’t be around in the months before Christmas but can help remotely.
