Hello, fever after vaccination in children is very common and usually returns to normal within about 3 days. Pay attention to increasing fluid intake. You can use physical cooling methods such as warm water bathing or applying fever-reducing patches. You can also take ibuprofen to reduce fever.Children are affected by neonatal diseases, so parents must take them to the hospital immediately for treatment to avoid blindly using small advertisements for medication.
