Drained my son's bcg vaccine
I have drained the pimple that's on my son's right arm(bcg vaccine) and used surgical spirit to clean it. I'm worried cause I didn't know anything about ths,since I've googled. Should I at least take him to the Dr and get it checked or maybe should he be given another bcg vaccine?
