Question
My baby is now 44 days old. The area where the anesthetic vaccine was injected initially had redness, and now there’s a white spot that has turned purulent. Can my grandmother use 75% alcohol to sterilize it after she bathes the baby every day? Should we go to the hospital?

It is advisable to seek medical attention promptly and have a doctor conduct a detailed examination of the affected area. Assess the current condition of the region and consider early treatment for an early recovery. For your reference.
