Do Tetanus, Diptheria And Polio Boosters Cause OCD Recurrence?
My son has ocd brought on possibly by the strep virus (pandas) or possibly by any physical illness. He has had a recurrence recently and I have just discovered that he had his tetanus, diptheria and polio booster at school three days before his ocd came back. Are there any reactions with the booster which could affect him?

Hii
iadmire you for positive outlook.
PANDAS usually associated with streptococcal infection and usually not affected by any booster doses.
I guess it is natural recurrence and need to take treatment.
So consult psychiatrist and start treatment.
Thank you.
