One of the most uncomfortable aspects of chickenpox is the intense itching, which can often feel constant, overwhelming, and extreme at times. While the urge to scratch can be just as intense as the itching itself, scratching the chickenpox rash is highly discouraged, as it can cause the blisters to open and increases the risk of contracting an infection. If the itching becomes unbearable or scratching is occurring unconsciously, it can be helpful to wear mittens or gloves. Not only can they protect the skin from rupture and exposure to infection, wearing mittens or gloves can serve as a visual reminder not to scratch.
