Chickenpox is a viral disease that has been traditionally treated with a paste of neem leaves, usually rubbed directly onto the affected skin. Neem alleviates the main problems associated with Chickenpox, the intense itching and scarring. Rubbing a neem-based cream on each of the sores lessens the itching, increase healing and prevent scarring. Bathing with neem soap in water with at least twenty neem leaves soothes the skin and promotes healing. Adults with Chickenpox can supplement the treatment by eating ten neem leaves daily.
