Already booked into docs for later on but has anybody else's children had a similar reaction? Is so swollen and hot. Poor DD, any ideas why this has happened? Sad

What was the vaccine? Something is ringing bells with me. My son had similar and it eventually went down. He had a lump for ages though.

It was her 1st year jabs, I've no idea what ones she had in this leg though, would it be in her red book? Sad

My ds1 has similar he had a huge hot red leg and spiked a fever. I consulted my gp which I would suggest you do. His later jabs were given slightly differently (he still had them) because of this but I'm sorry I can't remember exactly how, I can look later for you if you like.

Thank you @mama1980 yes that would be interesting to know.

She's got an appt later at the GP as the red area has grown larger since yesterday so I definitely want it looking at.

Funnily enough it doesn't really seem to be bothering her! But obviously I'm not poking it or anything, it must be sore? She's a little trooper bless her.
