Clinical narrative: Within 30 mins. a 2" diameter, hard, red, hot, painful lump appeared at the injection site.  It was still there after several hours, so I was advised to treat my son with children's motrin.  I gave him motrin daily for 4 days at which time the lump disappeared. 10 days after the vaccination, my son developed a severe case of hives--large, raised, itchy blotches all over his body.  I treated him with Benadryl but the hives kept recurring every few hours.  After a few days of hives, I brought him to the allergist who prescribed Zyrtec and Zantac 2x a day for 1 month.  This treatment controlled the hives until my son missed 2 doses (2 weeks after the treatment was begun) and hives recurred.  The treatment was resumed and continued for the remainder of the month.  When the treatment ended the hives did not recur.
