Dear Mamastar,
I would try 1 cup of raw apple cider vinegar in a tub bath for 20 minutes each night. You could also mix up a spray bottle with 1/4 apple cider vinegar and 3/4 part water and spray it on another couple of times a day.
Some use bandages to keep it from spreading, but bandages often irritate skin, making that skin more likely to get infected. I would just make sure you have your child change clothes daily and wash sheets every other day.
A child's vitamin C supplement may also help to strengthen the immune system to fight the virus, or some elderberry syrup.
