For your daughter's vaccine site reaction and ear issues, here are some guidelines:

### Vaccine Site Reaction
1. **Hard Lump**: It's common for a small hard lump to form at the site of a vaccine injection. This usually resolves on its own within a few weeks.
2. **Care Tips**:
   - **Warm Compress**: Apply a warm, moist compress to the area for 10-15 minutes a few times a day. This can help to reduce the lump.
   - **Pain Relief**: If the area seems painful, you can consider giving your baby infant acetaminophen or ibuprofen, but only if recommended by your pediatrician.
   - **Monitor**: Watch for signs of infection, such as redness, warmth, increased swelling, or if your baby seems very uncomfortable.

### Use of Thrombophobe
- **Thrombophobe**: This is typically used to treat superficial thrombophlebitis, and its use on a baby should be done only after consulting with a pediatrician.

### Ear Infection
1. **Pus in Ears**: Persistent pus may indicate an ear infection or another issue that needs medical attention.
2. **Care Tips**:
   - **Pediatrician Visit**: Schedule an appointment with your pediatrician. They may prescribe antibiotic ear drops or other treatments.
   - **Hygiene**: Keep the ears clean and dry. Avoid inserting anything into the ears.
   - **Saffron Use**: While saffron may have some traditional uses, its effectiveness for treating ear infections is not scientifically proven.

### Immediate Steps
- **Consult Your Pediatrician**: It's crucial to get professional medical advice for both the hard lump and the ear pus. Your pediatrician can provide the most appropriate treatment plan and ensure there are no complications.

While home remedies can sometimes help, professional medical evaluation is essential, especially for a baby. Your pediatrician will provide the safest and most effective treatments.
