Welcome to HCM.
I understand your concern.
Yes chicken pox infection can spread to testicle and result in its inflammation known as orchitis.
Firstly to confirm it need to do a sonography of both testicles immediately and immediately if there is inflammation should follow up with a surgery doctor for consultation
Hope i answered your queries
Thanks and regards.
