Don't pour hot water. If swelling gradually increase in size, with or without fever. Visit / consult with doctor physical or online.

Normally these vaccines should not produce a swelling like this and if it is persisting even after 5days, it needs to be seen by a doctor. He may prescribe anti-inflamatory and antibiotic if neccessary.
