A. Post vaccination swelling may be a common thing specially after DPT vaccine which may be painful for two or three days and the swelling may remain even up to month so if it is not causing any pain or other symptoms nothing to worry. Swelling can be ggtreduced by giving ice fomdentation locally and paracetamol can be given for fever or pain. Thrombophobe ointment can be applied in acute pain and swelling .

A. Hello dear parent! Try giving a cold compress. Gradually it will reduce. Consult your doctor for further advice on the same. If there is any pain you can give paracetamol drops with Babyhug medicine dropper. Good luck and take care
