When the scabs start falling off on there own. (2weeks aprox.)
A child with chickenpox should be kept out of school until all blisters have dried, usually about 1 week. If you're unsure about whether your child is ready to return to school, ask your doctor.
Chickenpox is very contagious — most kids with a sibling who's been infected will get it as well, showing symptoms about 2 weeks after the first child does.

The crust usually falls off after 7 days sometimes leaving a crater-like scar. Most pox will not leave scars unless they become contaminated with bacteria from scratching. Most crusts disappear < 20 days after onset.
Please see the web pages for more details on Chickenpox.

Your pox will start itching and scabbing. During the going away faze is when most people get all their scars or round craters to remind them not to scratch scabs.

You develop scabs on the pustules. No more fluid in them. Your itching abates.
