High fever after shots
My 12 month old daughter received some vaccination shots today and I know it is common for them to run a low grade fever after but she was up to 103.2, I then gave her ibuprofen and waited an hour. When I took it again it was 102.4 so I gave her Tylenol. Should I be concerned and possibly take her to the ER?

Vaccines will NOT cause high fever.
If fever is so high,OR accompanied by other symptoms like vomiting or loose motions or coughing and breathlessness or dullness and refusal to feed,consult your paediatrician asap.
