Can I eat anything if I have chickenpox in my throat?

[Jack the Toad]

I have some chickenpox on my tongue and down my throat. What should I do? Do they get infected easily, and can I eat anything?

You can eat whatever you are comfortable eating. try some liquids like soup etc first...then advance to soft food like ice cream, puddings etc. GL When you aren't scratching your chickenpox it's unlikely you will get infected.

Liquids or soft foods should be fine, soup, jello, etc. If the pain is too much or gets worse call your doctor.
