Hello Doctor, My baby is 3 months old now and she took her BCG vaccine on the 3rd day after birth. A small white mark appeared almost after 9 weeks and while it was about to disappear the area formed reddish again with small white mark within 2-3 days. Is this something we should be concerned with or it is normal?
