The constructions in the surrounding area had all been rebuilt, and looked very new.
Soon, Adam and Anthea came to the little girl's house.
The little girl's mother was watering flowers in the yard. She was a woman about more than 30 years old and very tall.
Seeing them entering the door with her daughter in their arms, she came up to them in a panic and asked what had happened.
Anthea explained the situation briefly and told her that she was a doctor. Then, she asked the direction of the bedroom and had Adam send the baby in first.
On the bed, she removed the little girl's clothing.
The condition was just as she had expected.
There were red herpes on her chest and back with centripetal division.
The little girl's mother asked anxiously, "Doctor Lee, is my daughter all right?"
Although Anthea was not wearing a white gown at this time, her appearance when she was treating the
disease was totally convincing.
Anthea smiled and said, "Don't worry. Your daughter is just having chickenpox!"
She was very confident about the diagnosis.
When she was in internship, she had come into contact with a lot of children with chickenpox, so she was very experienced in dealing with this disease.
"Chickenpox?" The woman was stunned.
"Yes!" Anthea nodded. "It mainly happens in infancy and preschool children. The fever is also caused by it. It looks very dangerous at first, but it's not lifethreatening!"
Hearing this, the woman was relieved. "That's good!"
"Now, you'd better change the clothes of your daughter first. And these quilts, you also need to change them into new ones!" Anthea told her what she should do.
"Okay, I will do it right now!" The woman answered hurriedly. Then she turned around and went to the cabinet to pick up new clothes for her daughter.
Maybe she was too hasty, and other clothes had also been brought out by her.
Something unexpected was exposed in the closet.
Anthea and Adam looked at each other and saw shock in each other's eyes.
There was a lot of money in the cabinet!
Shocked as they were, they still quickly looked away and didn't think much of it.
They only thought that this family were rich and kept a low profile.
Anthea told Adam to buy some antiviral drugs from a nearby pharmacy. Then she helped the little girl's mother to put on clean clothes for the little girl and wrapped the ice with a towel for physical cooling.
After everything was handled, she said, "The disease will last about a week, so don't go out during this period! The scabs will form and fall off in the end. Just make sure that your daughter doesn't scratch her skin, which would cause infection, and there would be no scars left. So, you also need to cut her nails short!”
"Chickenpox is a kind of infectious disease. When people are in contact with the patients or inhale their saliva, they would be infected. That means that you should pay more attention to yourself and the environment at home, especially in cleaning and disinfection, in order not to get infected! Open the windows more frequently!"
Then she added seriously, "Oh, one more thing! Your daughter just played with a few other children. Could you please inform their parents to take care of their child? The incidence rate of the chickenpox can reach 95%. If they had it already, there is nothing to worry about. But those who never have it should be kept an eye on!"
"Okay, I'll inform them later!" The woman nodded vigorously.
At this time, Adam was back with the drugs.
