A. hello , any medicine or cream we should not use without advice of your pediatrician. if fever is there and it is more than 100 degree fahrenheit then give Paracetamol suspension as per pediatrician prescription and also you can give cold compress for just massage with ice wrapped in cotton cloth which will give relief from pain at injection spot
