What Are The Side Effects Of Pentax In Shot For 1.5 Yr Old?
My 1.5 yr old boy got a Pentaxim shot on his thigh yesterday and today his thigh and knee is swollen very badly. I have given him crocin DS to bring down the fever which is not more than 39 degree celsius. How can I bring down the swelling ? Is it normal for the limb to swell up 24 hours post the shot
