Hi thanks for contacting HCM...

Noted if your mother had developed chickenpox in past then acquiring infection chance is very less...

Second until at least 10 days try to keep away from her to prevent infection to her if she has never developed it...
It can also spread through respiratory droplets....

For pruritus calamine lotion can be applied.
If there is much scabbing slack gauze piece in pottasium permanent diluted form over affected area.

If secondary infection present antibiotic given.

Oral acyclovir tablet taken...

And if needed for rash antihistaminic drug taken...

Take care.
