Adverse effects of diphtheria pertussis booster 15

It's a coincidence, my son is 23 months old, he took a diphtheria-pertussis booster shot last Friday morning, went outside in the afternoon to have a good time, and began to have a fever in the evening, and the next morning he took a temperature of 38 degrees 5, I gave him water, and the fever dropped to 37 degrees 8, and then the fever was somewhat repetitive, but the spirit was very good, eating and sleeping normally, and when taking a bath, I found that his injection site was red and swollen severely, I checked the information on the Internet, saying that this booster shot was very domineering, and most of the baby had fever and redness and swelling at the vaccination site after vaccination, So I didn't give the baby antipyretics, and by the evening of the third day, the fever went away on its own, and the baby recovered as before. The fever caused by this vaccine generally goes away in two or three days, no need to take medicine, the temperature is too high, you can physically cool down or take some antipyretics, and don't scratch the red and swollen places.

Redness, swelling and fever are normal, generally appear within three or four days after the shot, if the fever does not exceed the need to do anything, drink more water, or physical cooling can be, if it exceeds the fever medicine or go to the hospital to see. If there is redness and swelling in the injection area, use a hot towel to promote absorption, and it will generally return to normal in about a month.

Fever is normal, 37 degrees 3 is not considered a high fever, as long as the child eats and sleeps normally, there is no need to worry, but if it is a high fever, you must take measures to reduce fever, and it is best to seek medical attention.

The reaction to the imported inactivated vaccine will be smaller.

Newborns need to wait at least 28 days before receiving the second dose of DTP vaccine after receiving the first dose of DTP vaccine. Moreover, the response to diphtheria-pertussis vaccine will increase with the number of doses administered, that is, the reaction after the second vaccination is greater than that of the first. So what is the first adverse reaction of the second shot of diphtheria?

Let's take a look.

There are generally two types of adverse reactions that may occur after vaccination. One is the local adverse reaction at the inoculation site, where symptoms such as redness, swelling, pain, itching, and induration appear at the inoculation site, and obvious redness and swelling may occur if the reaction is severe. One is systemic adverse reactions, the more common is fever, and some children may experience fatigue, dizziness, headache, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, etc., and children may also be accompanied by irritability and increased crying.

These are generally normal phenomena that will occur after vaccination with diphtheria, tetanus However, if the child complains of a more serious local or systemic reaction, such as convulsions and convulsions, he or she should be sent to the hospital for treatment**.

We all know that every baby is a little angel in the hearts of parents, a rare treasure in every family, and the hope of a family's future, so many parents are very concerned about everything about their babies. However, the vaccination procedure and time of the vaccine are complicated, and some parents will inevitably miss some vaccination time and miss a shot. What should I do if I don't get a diphtheria-pertussis booster shot?

Can I not take the fourth shot of diphtheria?

According to China's vaccination program, children are generally vaccinated with diphtheria, tetanus The last dose of the child's vaccination is commonly known as the booster shot, which is usually 4 to 6 weeks apart, and then the fourth dose is injected at 18 to 24 months, which is the booster shot. Therefore, only after the booster shot can the child be considered to have been fully vaccinated with the diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis vaccine, and the corresponding antibodies against pediatric pertussis, diphtheria, tetanus and other diseases can be generated.

If you find that your child has not received a booster shot when receiving the diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis vaccine, it is recommended that parents can take their children to the local hospital or vaccination center to consult how to get the diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis booster shot, so as to give the child a complete health protection.

Newborns generally need to be vaccinated with three shots of diphtheria-pertussis vaccine, due to the different physique of children, the reaction to the vaccine is also very different, some children will have adverse reactions after the second dose of diphtheria-pertussis vaccine, and the reaction is larger, so what is the child's reaction? What to do? Let's go through them one by one.

The child's reaction to the second dose of diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis vaccine may be because the reaction to the diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis vaccine is bent and will increase with the number of vaccinations, and the reaction will be greater than the first shot, so the child's reaction to the second dose will be greater than that after the first vaccination. In addition, the degree of reaction after vaccination is also related to the child's own physical condition, some children will have a greater adverse reaction after vaccination, while some children will not.

Then when the child's wheel dust has a large adverse reaction after vaccination, parents must pay attention to observe the child's physical condition, pay attention to the child's changes, and let the child rest appropriately. If the child has some common adverse reactions such as redness, swelling and pain at the vaccination site, fever, etc., parents do not need to worry too much, these reactions usually do not require special treatment, and will generally subside on their own. However, if the child has abnormal crying and other serious adverse reactions, he or she needs to be sent to the doctor immediately.

General reaction: After vaccination, some children will have pain, redness, slight fever, and body temperature < 38 at the vaccination site within 24 hours, and some cases will have swollen axillary lymph nodes on the injection side. The inoculation site is red, swollen, painful, induration, diameter greater than 5 cm, generally occurs about 1 week after inoculation, body temperature < 38, can be used with a clean towel moist hot compress, the method is to fold the towel or gauze into a square, soak in 60 70 hot water, slightly wring out and apply to the induration part, change every 5 10 minutes, last 20 30 min, at least 1 2 times a day, and the massage effect is better.

If the high fever does not go away or there are other abnormal symptoms, you should be sent to the hospital for diagnosis in time**, but antibiotics should not be given**.

3. Aggravated reaction Induration and effusion at the inoculation site, such as touching the local ** fluctuation sensation, the surface ** is not broken, damp heat compress and physiotherapy can be given, there is no bacterial infection in the early stage, do not cut and drain the fluid, so as not to cause bacterial infection and fistula formation, if necessary, according to the requirements of aseptic operation with a sterilized syringe from time to time, can also be used for external application of ichthyl ointment; If there is an abscess at the inoculation site and the surface has been broken, incision and drainage can be given, expansion and infestation, pay attention to protecting the wound, and cooperate with antibiotics** and so on.

Like all drugs, the vaccine is a foreign body to the human body after all, and the vast majority of healthy people do not have any adverse reactions after vaccination, and only a very small number of adverse reactions occur after vaccination due to individual differences, and the same is true for diphtheria, tetanus A small number of people may experience adverse reactions after receiving the diphtheria-pertussis vaccine.

1) Common adverse reactions: pain and tenderness can occur at the injection site, and in most cases disappear within 2 to 3 days; transient febrile reactions, most of which are mild, usually lasting 1 to 2 days before resolving spontaneously; A small number of children may have a transient rash that usually resolves spontaneously in less than 2 days.

2) Rare adverse reactions: severe febrile reactions.

3) Very rare adverse reactions: allergic rash, which generally appears within 72 hours after vaccination.

If the child has a fever (axillary temperature) after vaccination, he should strengthen observation, rest appropriately, and drink plenty of water to prevent other secondary diseases; When the fever is more than or below and accompanied by other systemic symptoms, abnormal crying, etc., you should go to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment in time; For local reactions with redness and swelling less than centimeters in diameter, no treatment is generally required; For local reactions of redness and swelling with a diameter of cm to 3 cm, a warm compress can be applied with a clean towel several times a day for 10 to 15 minutes each time; For local reactions with redness and swelling greater than 3 cm in diameter, you should go to the hospital in time.
