The place where the baby got vaccinated is red and swollen.

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Hello, after reading the description, the child received a vaccination and developed redness and swelling on both sides, with one side possibly showing signs of infection. Advice: The redness, pus formation, and scabbing on the side where the BCG vaccine was administered are normal. If there is no scabbing, a booster dose is needed. The side where the BCG vaccine was administered should not be swollen. If swelling occurs, it may indicate an infection. You can use povidone-iodine for disinfection. If the condition is severe, see a doctor for treatment.
