Correct Answer:

Viral disease

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (3)- Viral disease

Rama is suffering from viral disease, specifically chickenpox.

Explanation:

Chickenpox is caused by the varicella-zoster virus (VZV), which is a member of the herpesvirus family. It is a highly contagious viral infection that primarily affects children but can also occur in adults who have not been previously infected or vaccinated.

The characteristic symptoms of chickenpox include the development of itchy skin rashes and fluid-filled blisters. The virus is transmitted through respiratory droplets or direct contact with the fluid from the blisters. Chickenpox is typically a self-limiting disease, but it can cause discomfort and complications, particularly in certain high-risk groups. Vaccination is an effective preventive measure against chickenpox.
