Try seeing your pharmacist. This happened to ds2 and was a local infection, so had to have antibiotics. Pharmacist told us to see GP.

Pnuemococcol (sp!) ?It is normal to have swelling and redness/inflammation. Ds got it with the pnuemo one iirc. Sounds like a big area. Poor wee thing, eh? If you're worried, call the hv / gp or ask pharmacist for some reassurancce.
