Hi I just took my ds to the pedi for his 6mnths shots and this time it left a knot on his little leg he got 3 shots and only 1 place he got a shot has this knot...he got his shots on fri and it is tues and it is still there has anyone else had this happen? I was thinking of calling his pedi and asking if maybe something is wrong. He seems fine no fever or anything and the knot does not seem to hurt him but I am still worried.

My dd had the same thing happen after her 3 month shots. I wouldn't worry about it.

yeah, actually the np told me there could be little swollen pockets after bella's 4month shots. I would just keep an eye on it and call if it doesnt go away soon but dont worry!

Dr. told me to rub his legs in the spots where het got stuck so that knots do not appear

totally normal. My ped. said the knots could last up to 6 weeks, but that it was nothing to worry about. If they seem to hurt your ds, rub them lightly with a warm washcloth and massage them in the bath.

my pedi warned me that it could happen and not to worry unless there is a fever of 102+
