Answers:
Chicken Pox is an infection that is characteristic with a rash of blisters. The symptoms of chicken pox will appear 1-3 weeks after you have been infected.

A person is contagious from about 2 days before the rash first appears until it fully crusts over in about 10-14 days.Health Question & Answer

I think it depends on if the blisters are still filled (contagious) or scabbed-over (not contagious).
Remember to take baths with oatmeal to reduce the itchiness, thus lowering the chance of popping the blisters and spreading the disease.Health Question & Answer
