Fever after Hep A vaccine is rare, but can occur. If he is not having any other problem like cough, vomiting, loose motion, you can probably give paracetamol and wait for a day or two. If fever doesn’t settles or if he develops any other problem kindly take him back to the doctor.
Next Steps
Give paracetamol
