Symptoms: Injection site erythema, Injection site haematoma, Injection site induration, Injection site pain, Injection site swelling
Clinical narrative: Extreme swelling at injection site, site was hard, red and swollen for 6-7 days. Child had fever of 101 for 3 days, and was covered in hives. Injection site bruised significantly, and although fever subsided for a few days, hives remained, and became much worse on day 10. Injection site was the first place to turn red and become covered in hives...about a four inch tall band around her arm, then hives spread to her trunk and face. fever returned, and we opted to go to the E.R. It was confirmed that it was allergic reaction, but Doctor would not confirm it was the vaccines, even though the only constant symptom was redness and hives at vaccine site. Child was given benadryl which only helped in the sense that she was able to sleep, but here on day 11, she is still feverish and covered in hives. Pain at injection site causes tears when I touch it, and we will be visiting pediatrician this week if symptoms continue.
