A. Mam this is abscess basically which can happen any time after getting a vaccination done with specially with vaccination it is going to burst so either you let her do it on its own or you just burst it out with the help of a cotton take the infection out of the blood is going to come after that and after that you can clean it with beta Dean and apply that and leave it open that is what you can do otherwise you can consult your doctor for this
