9 yr old had chickenpox post vaccine caught from brother. very mild maybe 20 spots however daily headaches still. headaches for 7 days now ?

Should resolve soon: Headaches should resolve soon after chickenpox infection; persistent headaches may be due to something else so vigilance is important. One to two weeks duration for chickenpox not that unusual.
