Question: Hi, I have itchy purple spots on my leg. I have recently had hepititas a and b vaccine. Is this anything to worry about.
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query and uploading the image. I have taken a good look at it.
No need to worry. As you have taken hepatitis A and B vaccine, reaction occurs.
Time is a crucial factor in the progression of an allergic or fatal reaction.
This takes some days to weeks.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if you have any more concerns.
