Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy2 years agoA. yes
when fever and pain comes after vaccination you can give paracetamol to the child for fever as well as pain.
paracetamol can be given maximum 4 timdes per day.
you can also apply ice over the injection site.
if there is local swelling you can apply ice as well as thrombophob gel.
vaccine fever usually subsides in max 2 to 3 days but if it continues beydond 3 days meet your dr to rule out any other causes of fever

POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy2 years agoA. Yes, In the 48 hours after vaccination, if your baby still has a fever but is otherwise well, you can continue to give your baby the same 2.5 ml dose (60mg) of infant paracetamol (120mg/5ml) suspension. You should always leave at least 4 hours between doses and never give more than 4 doses in any 24 hour period.
