When the chickenpox virus becomes active again, the nodules are very irritating and painful, similar to burns on the surface of the skin, where the nerve region is affected by the virus.

This burning sensation comes from the fact that the virus attacks the nerves that work towards the perception of pain and temperature. The pain can remain for several weeks or months after the disappearance of smallpox symptoms.
