Hello, Welcome to HCM,
In some individuals following thr chicken poxvaccine they may develop the mild symptoms of the disease chicken pox.
It is a live vaccine in which the antigens are attenuated to induce the protective antibody titre and protect against the disease.
The symptoms will be mild in some individuals and it will disappear without any sequels.
Donot worry about the symptoms you are having. Thank you.
