Baby keeps crying as if in pain
I have a 11weeks old baby and she is crying a lot since evening. She cried the same way 3 weeks before when she had her vaccinations and I feel she is crying the same way today. Didn't want to feed as well and fed after a long while. Only thing I could see is a boil forming in bcg site and some insect bite like in legs. Will bcg boil/blister cause pain to baby? Also I can see a lump/knot in dtp site and it's been 3 weeks. Is it something to worry about?
it is pyloric spasm. Use proper feeding technique, help the child to burp, small feeds at a time. mostly it gets better with proper feeding technic, sometimes we use antispasmodics..
Next Steps
avoid arguments while baby taking feeds. Keep the patient in upright position
Health Tips
relax is mantra. Baby grows to stop pylorospasm.

A small lump in the injection site of DTP is nothing to worry. If it's obvious then show a doctor. BCG can form a pustule and then break and again this process will continue for sometime. It does not cause pain.
Colic can cause pain or insect bites too can.
