Answer 4

Usually 3-7 days, if you rest and drink lots of water/gatorade best cure. Hope this helps, I had chicken pox before. Actually you should be more specific for example how old is the person. Cause if your really young like say before 7 years old, it can be deadly and you have to go to the doctor immediately also if your a really old person. Since their immunity system maybe not so great as with teens getting it or over the age of at least 8 or 9 age. It's best to get the chicken pox when your healthy and in your teen years.
