A member asked:
Can the chicken pox vaccine cause a croup like sounding cough in my 15 month old?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No : We do not see a croupy cough typically with the chicken pox vaccine. Your child may have had an exposure to a peer with a viral illness causing a croupy cough and cold symptoms. Hope this helps!
