Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy1 Year agoA. after painful vaccines administration they
can cause swelling in the limbs which can continue for more than two montchs also.
it does not require any treatment and should go away on its own.
after vaccination immediately you should start applying ice as well as thrombophob gel to prevent such swellings from persisting
