Q.

Hi, I got my baby's 1st vaccination today. I was told to give calpol for fever. I have confusion that I should giv calpol immediately after vaccination is done to avoid pain or should I wait for fever to occur and then giv calpol to baby. please suggest. Note - This vaccination dose is absolutely painfully. We didn't opt painless
