A. Hi.. better to avoid.. Feeding your baby after the vaccination session could also help alleviate the pain To ease the pain, apply ice-packs gently on the site. This will help her counter the pain and soothe the inflammation.To do it the right way, take an ice-cube and rub it over your palms. Apply the cold icy water on the affected area by gently patting on the injection site. Remember directly rubbing an ice-cube on your baby s skin which is already inflamed can make the experience more painful than providing any relief.  Fever soon after vaccination is normal and it subsides within a day or two. If this happens talk to your doctor and give your baby the right medication.

A. if you have done with DPT vaccination Then there would be pain and swelling over the injection site along with fever for which you can just simply apply ice fomentation over the injection site no need for thrombophob ointment and give Paracetamol drops for fever and pain
