What Causes Persistent Fever After Chickenpox Recovery?

Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ?goodevening...i suffered from chicken pox exactly 3 weeks ago and since then i have kept a check on my fever. my problem since then is that my fever keeps coming back every evening around 5-6 and stays till around 11:30. at the other times of the day my temperature is normal. even at night my temperature is normal. also my chicken pox spots went away in the normal period of 7 days and did not give me much of a trouble. i have been taking multivitamins since 5 days now but still no help. i do not have any other symptoms but only this fever which keeps coming back in the evenings.also my fever does not exceed 99F. it only fluctuates between 37.1 and 37.2.also i just feel a little weak but that really is not a big problem which affects me. i feel it could be my recovery from the viral. basically fever is my main problem. i am really worried abt this now. please can you help me with some answer?

HI
Well come to HCM
Chicken pox is viral infection such viral infection increase the chances of opportunistic bacterial infection in other world this could be secondary bacterial infection, wait for some time because this would come around, if the fever persistence then blood work would be necessary, this is nothing to worry, with the proper antibiotic this would come around, hope this information helps.
