The first thing you must do is get your daughter thoroughly checked out by a doctor. Please remember that chicken pox is hardly the kind of disease you should be diagnosing yourself. If your daughter is a child below the age of 12 years and has not been inoculated against chicken pox, then it is highly likely that she has developed chicken pox. Although the symptoms you are describing are not those commonly associated with the disease. But because of this, it is better to get a medical examination. This way, you will at least know accurately what the problem is with the patient. But no matter what the age of your daughter is, if she has not been inoculated for chicken pox, it is likely she has acquired it. This is because those who have no inoculation can actually get chicken pox anytime, irrespective of age. You can take care of each of the symptoms you have described that your daughter is suffering from. For tiredness, make sure she gets plenty of rest and relaxation. If her head and neck are aching, you would have to ensure that she lies down a lot. This will help her. Make sure also that she has plenty of fluids. Sometimes, dehydration can also cause headaches as well as pains in the entire neck area. If she wants, feed her fresh citrus juices. These will also supply her with vitamin C and boost her immunity, thus helping with a speedy recovery.
If she is suffering from diarrhea, you can employ a simple remedy to take care of it. Make a mix of equal parts of roasted and powdered fennel seeds and powdered sugar. Keep giving this to your daughter intermittently during the day. This will control excessive as well as loose stools. The pleasant taste of this mixture will also ensure that your daughter does not protest too much to take it. You can also give her bananas and apples to eat. These are fruits that will control her diarrhea considerably. Contrary to popular belief, bananas are not a cause of loose motions. They will, in fact, stop loose motions. If you continue with these remedies, you will be able to take care of each of the symptoms you have described. However, it is important for you to know that taking care of symptoms is not the same thing as removing the problem. You should work at reaching the root of the problem instead.
