A. Hello good morning !! Swelling on vaccinated area is normal and it vanish by 3-5 days as baby is still having swelling since 15 days check if its paining. After a day of vaccination doing ice pack on swelling area will reduce pain and swelling ... You can now do ice pack (keep ice cubes) in a cotton cloth ,keep on swelling area for 30-45 seconds repeat the process for about 5-8 minutes frequently through out the day . If swelling is not reducing then consult paediatrician.

Q. My baby boy is now 2 months old, we took 45 days vaccine for baby, there was a swelling in my baby's left leg. I used thrombophob ointment for that. It's been more than 15 days now but still it is showing little swelling in his leg. Is there any solution for that? or will create any problem? One more doubt, while applying thrombophob ointment, we shouldn't apply over the injected area, we should apply around the injected area, is it true?
