Fever after vaccination

Is it normal for 1 year old baby to have fever after her 1 year vaccination? When should I get worry? We went to nearest clinic and she took some medicines but her fever never get down.

Yes it's normal. Fever caused by vaccination will only last for 24-48 hours so if your baby still has fever after 2 days you should come back to clinic to check. Otherwise nothing to worry, just give lots of fluid, sponging and hugs to keep baby happy

Yes..give her medicine every 4hrs and check her temparature too. Cold compress will help as well while ur baby is asleep. If her temparature is still higher than 38°,it is best to bring her to pedia.

Yes its normal , do sponge your baby for 30mins . Every 6 hourly . And lots of fluids too , be it water juice or milk .
