Hello, my 15 months old son got his vaccination done 2 days ago for Chickenpox, MMR and Hib and Prevenar, in 2 shots, one in each thigh. later, i have observed that there has become a big marble sized lump on of his thighs, with pinkish red skin all around the injection spot. Please tell me what it is and is it dangerous? How to cure it?
HI, Dear,Thanks for the query to Chat Doctor.1-I have studied your query in depth.2-IN my opinion, this red skinned post-injection thigh lump, is a post-injection cellulitis-a normal reaction to such vaccines.3-I would advise you to -a-Cold compress if for a day b-Show it to your doctor who would give NSAID -Syria he is a child of 15 myths. And c-antibiotic syrup -SOS, if doctor suspects-early abscess with post-injection infection.4-Hope this would solve you query to your satisfaction.5-Wellcome for more queries to me On Chat Doctor.6-Thnks once again for your inquisitive query. Have a Good Day.!!
