Post vaccination
My 2 yr old daughter was given Menveo vaccine 2 days back. And from yesterday she is having redness and swelling around vaccination site which is normal I think but the swelling is warm to touch. Also I have noticed her scratching the side (sometimes only). Pls suggest whether it's normal for the vaccine site to be warmer then other areas?

Yes, it is normal for it to be warmer.
Apply calamine lotion or ice pack wrapped in a clean clothe.
Avoid scratching as that could lead to infections.
If there's any increase in size and pain, consult physically.
