Hi,I am Dr. Santosh Kondekar (Pediatrician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Just started vaccinations on my 3 yr old. He has had pain on the same spot(leg/upper thigh)for three weeks. He complains throughout the day and limps, and not wanting to put weight on leg. Was wondering if this was a side effect from the vaccines ? Or something else.
Hi, Thank you for asking question on health care magic. Pain occurs after DPT vaccine usually disappears by 2-3 days. If the pain is persisting for such a long time it may be infection . Probably developing an injection abscess. Better consult the doctor immediately. Hope this answer will serve your purpose Please feel free to ask any more queries if required Take care Dr.M.V.Subrahmanyam MD;DCH Associate professor of pediatrics
