Oatmeal baths help too. As for the lumps, I'd take her to the doc and make sure she doesn't have an ear infection.mine always swell with ear infections

These sound like Lymph nodes and may be enlarged due to the fact she had an infection.If you are concerned its always best to ask your doctors advice .With chicken pox try to make sure she doesnt scratch as that can leave scars ..Calamine lotion is good at stopping a lot of itching its has many cooling properties .
