Chicken Pox Vaccine & Ibruprofen

Does anyone know if I can give ibruprofen 6 days after the vaccine, I know it can’t be given if they have the virus & I’m reading conflicting advice online. 111 will take hours to contact so I’ll pop into a pharmacy tomorrow to ask but my LO has had all 1 year vaccines & 2nd dose of CP vaccine on the same day and now has a fever and heavy cold (could well be covid, I’ve got it too and now feel like I did when I’ve previously had covid, will buy & test tomorrow so I know) anyways they’re uncomfortable even after calpol, we’re nose spraying and have all the plug ins etc but just seems miserable and squirming and temp isn’t reducing by much

I won’t give any ibruprofen tonight until I speak to pharmacy tomorrow if we can get them comfortable but just wondered if anyone knew?
