Patient's question:
The child has received the third dose of the hepatitis B vaccine. The doctor said to drink some water, is this necessary? After the third dose of the hepatitis B vaccine, the doctor asked the baby to drink water, but no matter whether I use a bottle or a small spoon to feed, the baby doesn't drink. Is this necessary? The rescue situation in the past...Doctor's answer:
A vaccine may cause adverse reactions again, including fever, local redness, swelling, and pain. This is a normal phenomenon. Everyone has a different constitution, so the likelihood of experiencing adverse reactions again varies. The reason for giving children water is to minimize the chance of them having adverse reactions again. If the baby refuses to drink, there is no need to force him; just pay close attention to any changes in the child for two days after taking the medicine and ensure he does not catch a cold.
