Watch for for fluid filled vescules and rash in chicken pox usually rash appears on third day of fever. If they do immediately contact me or any medico for treatment. It is chickenpox vaccination doesn't guarantee protection. It only enhance immunity and reduce chances of infection and even more reduce chances of severe disease. So even if you get infected you will only develop mild disease. Take tab limcee od it enhances immunity.
