Hard Swelling near Vaccine area on thigh
My baby got his 14th Week vaccine on 22nd March. Couple of days post vaccine we found the injected area a bit swelled. When we move finger it feels like a small hard ball. It has been a week now but its still the same. We tried to contact the doctor but he has left for abroad and not available. Before consulting other doctor we thought to take advice online. Kindly Advise.

Hi thanks for writing to Practo consult
May a times swelling does occur after injection. It will resolve by 4-6 weeks. If baby has no fever, swelling is non tender , do not worry.
