Chicken pox at your age can erupt
Paracetamol 650 mg is good for fever
Other tablets like cetrizine can be added if itchy lesions
Moreover antiviral should be started like acyclovir to avoid any complications and that too early
Lots of fluids orally should be taken

Yes it’s normal to have fever in chicken pox but it’s not normal to have chicken pox at ur age.
Kindly consult with image of the leision, at ur age they might cause serious issues nd permanent scarring of face if necessary precautions r not taken,
Kindly consult with detail history and Symptom for further guidance and prescription
