I've been dealing with urticaria and I'm currently taking Betacap 40mg, Primox 25mg, and Tyroxine 50mg for it. I'm a bit worried and wondering whether I should keep taking these medications or if they might be causing the issues. Could these meds be related to my urticaria?

I'm feeling a bit better after having chicken pox for the past 12 days. Is it okay to have sex now, or would it be safer to wait a little longer?
It's great to hear you're feeling better. However, it's recommended to wait until all scabs have fallen off and your skin has healed completely before resuming sexual activity. This helps reduce the risk of spreading the virus and ensures your body has fully recovered.
