Dear Pamela It is usual after after vaccination for few days. If the it persist you should contact any pediatrician. Any vaccine can cause side effects. For the most part these are minor (for example, a sore arm or low-grade fever) and go away within a few days. A vaccine, like any medicine, could cause a serious reaction. But the risk of a vaccine causing serious harm, or death, is extremely small. Mild Problems Several mild problems have been reported within 2 weeks of getting the vaccine: headaches, upper respiratory tract infection (about 1 person in 3) stuffy nose, sore throat, joint pain (about 1 person in 6) abdominal pain, cough, nausea (about 1 person in 7) diarrhea (about 1 person in 10) fever (about 1 person in 100) Severe Problems More serious problems have been reported by about 1 person in 100, within 6 months of vaccination. These problems included: blood in the urine or stool pneumonia inflammation of the stomach or intestines It is not clear whether these mild or serious problems were caused by the vaccine or occurred after vaccination by chance.
