Many people think of oatmeal baths as a first line of defense against chicken pox, but Epsom salt baths are also very effective. Epsom salt baths are rich in minerals that revitalize the skin, stimulating blood flow and boosting the strength of the immune system. These minerals also promote rapid healing and prevent the formation of scars in most cases. Chicken pox can leave permanent marks behind, particularly if they are scratched or irritated to the point of bleeding. Epsom salt baths will help relieve some of the irritation and itchiness, which will stop the scratching and subsequent scarring.
