A. my baby was recently given BCG and doctor then told that a small swell with puss may form at injected area in 10-15 days and no need to worry as that is how vaccine works on some babies and we shouldn't try to compress it or do anything to that. few babies wont get such swelling and will be normal. both the cases are normal and that is how vaccine works on different babies. Still you can see a doctor for better treatment if needed

A. Hi dear good afternoon If there is a pain and little swelling, give a hot compress to baby. Soak a cotton cloth in hot water squeeze it and gently press on injected area. Avoid cold compress as it sometimes may lead to cold. If there is heavy swelling or puss or heavy redness then immediately you should see your doctor.
