A. okkkk No need to worry for pain, fever, swelling after vaccination. Its common after vaccination If baby is crancky , exessive cry, swelling and fever then Give paracetmol drops to baby for 1-2 days Fever, pain will decreases in next 1 -2 days Don't apply anything over vaccination site It cause decrease in the efficiency of given vaccine Cont. to give feed as per demand Keep ur baby well hydrated Keep a watch on urine output Baby should pass minimum urine 6-8 times per day Swelling will take it's own time to disappear.

A. Hello dear parent! Just give a little cold compress. Continue to exclusively breastfeed your baby for better health, nutrition and hydration. You can massage your baby with Babyhug cold pressed coconut oil after swelling reduces. Good luck and take care
