No, Microwaves can only cause damage to you if you are exposed to them for long periods of time and at high power levels. Microwaves contain less energy than visible light and even Infrared light. This and the large wave length make it very difficult for a microwave to cause you any damage at all.

There is nothing to prove that cooking chicken in a microwave causes cancer. You do always want to make sure to cook chicken completely where no pink is showing.
