Hello. Thank you for asking at Chat Doctor. From your history, I would first suspect food allergy/allergy-like reaction. Although you already have noticed you react to chicken, the culprit food can be chicken or any of the ingredient of the preparation you consumed.Hence, I would suggest you to consult an Allergist. Two most important questions he will ask you are - 1. Have you ever had any such reaction without consuming chicken? 2. Have you ever consumed chicken and not reacted? He may also suggest you allergy testing depending upon your history. If you are allergic to chicken, I would suggest you to avoid them for at least 6 months and then try again with small amount. Hope this will be helpful to you. Wish you best of the health. Regards.
