What to Do If a Child Has a Fever After Vaccination?

Answer

Having a fever after vaccination is a normal reaction, usually with a high fever around 38 degrees Celsius. If the fever is high, you can take antipyretic medication. Generally, once the body temperature returns to normal, other symptoms will also subside. If the low fever persists or other abnormalities occur, it is advisable to seek medical attention promptly.
