Swelling for 1st dose of vaccination
My baby boy is seven and half weeks age. He got his 1st dose of vaccination of Hep-B, rotavirus,HIB,DTV on 17th July. Injection area got swollen and has become hard inside. Applied Ice on the area for 2days but still has not reduced. In how many days will the swelling reduce? Shall we apply Iodex or Vicks on that area? Please advice.Attached pic for your reference. Thanks in Advance.
