What should I do if my child has a fever after vaccination?

When we were very young, in order to prevent various diseases, we always had to take certain measures. Vaccination is one of them. We can resist various diseases through injections. However, after the vaccination, it will also cause us some adverse reactions. Children having a fever after vaccination is one of them. Let us take a detailed look at the reasons.

1. A transient fever may occur after vaccination, which is generally below 38.5 degrees, but may exceed this temperature in some individual cases.

If the fever is caused by vaccination, you can just give antipyretic treatment and there is no need for oral cold medicine. However, there are also cases of upper respiratory tract infections caused by viral infections after vaccination. At this time, you should check whether there are any cold symptoms such as runny nose, nasal congestion or sneezing, or whether there is congestion in the throat. If you have these symptoms, you can take oral cold medicine.

2. White blood cell count may decrease during viral infection, but it is usually transient and will recover quickly after the infection is controlled. It is recommended to recheck blood routine after 3-5 days.

3. If a child has a fever, try to use physical cooling methods, but if the fever is high, you can use antipyretics appropriately.

The above is about the situation of children having a fever after receiving vaccinations. Some fever symptoms usually appear after this kind of medical treatment. This symptom is normal, but if certain measures are not taken in time, it will also cause some more serious adverse reactions, so some physical cooling methods must be taken to help children cool down.

4. If diarrhea occurs, it is recommended to have a routine stool test to understand the cause of the diarrhea. You can first take Smecta orally to stop diarrhea, and you can use drugs that regulate the flora, such as Siliankang, Bifidobacterium or Mommy Love, etc.
