Chicken pox, medically known as varicella, is a highly contagious disease
affecting mostly children and sometimes adults also. The rash appears on
the body 2 days after the person gets infected. The rash forms into
blisters, which burst and then scab over. The incubation period of
chicken pox is 2 to 3 weeks. People are more prone to the disease during
winter and spring season. Pregnant women, who are getting chicken pox
for the first time, must seek medical assistance.
