Hello,
Welcome to HCM,

Chicken pox is a disease caused by varicella virus which is transmitted by droplet infection and nuclei.

It is highly infectious and communicable 2 days before the rashes to 4 days aftre the rashes. The rashes and symptoms will be more in a patient with reduced immunity.

As such there is no food restriction but you have to consume food which boost your immunity. Protein rich food helps to increase the immunity and fight against thus virus.

Thank you.
