I'm really worried about my husband. He's dealing with chicken pox right now and besides the rash, he's got a really bad headache and fever. It's making me anxious. Is this normal with chicken pox, or should we be more concerned about these symptoms? What should we do to help him feel better?

Buscogast, primarily containing Hyoscine Butylbromide, is designed to relieve muscle spasms and cramps in the gastrointestinal and genitourinary tracts, but it doesn't directly affect body temperature. Its mechanism of action focuses on relaxing smooth muscles and suppressing secretions, which doesn't inherently influence body temperature regulation.

I'm a bit concerned because for the past few days, I've been experiencing a mild fever only in the evenings, along with a heavy feeling in my head and some mild leg pain. I also start feeling cold from evening till morning, but it's weird because there aren't any chills. Could this be related to a change in the weather, or is it something else I should be worried about? Would love to get your thoughts on this.
