I heard about an adult who got chicken pox. He was in his thirties. He was quite shocked as he thought chicken pox was only for kids. His symptoms were quite severe. He had a high fever, body aches, and the pox marks were everywhere. He had to take antiviral medications prescribed by the doctor. During his recovery, he had to be very careful not to scratch the blisters to avoid scarring. He also had to follow a strict diet to boost his immunity so that he could get better faster.
Sure. I once knew an adult who got chicken pox. He was really miserable. He had itchy rashes all over his body. He couldn't go to work for days as he was contagious. He spent most of his time at home, applying calamine lotion to relieve the itchiness. It was a tough time for him as he also had a fever and felt weak.
Well, there was this adult who got chicken pox. He thought it was just a normal rash at first. But then more and more blisters appeared. He had to isolate himself from his family. His doctor told him to take lots of rest and stay hydrated. He had a hard time sleeping because of the itch. It took him about two weeks to fully recover.
Typically, itchy rash is very common. Just like in the story I know, the adult had these itchy blisters all over. Also, fever often occurs.
Sure. Once, my little cousin had chicken pox. He was so itchy that he tried to scratch with a wooden spoon so he wouldn't use his nails. He ended up looking like he was conducting an orchestra while trying not to itch, it was hilarious.

One horror story could be a child who had a very severe case of chicken pox. The blisters covered their entire body, including their face, and they were in constant pain.

Definitely. A girl got chicken pox and some of the blisters on her arms were really big and itchy. She scratched them a lot during her sleep.
