How to properly organize the child's day regimen after vaccination? Is it possible to walk on this day or should you wait? Understanding.
Such vaccines can be used against:
- rubella;
- chickenpox;
- poliomyelitis;
- tuberculosis;
- mumps;
- rotavirus;
- measles;
- flu.
But we note that in each specific case, you need to check with the doctor which vaccine is administered to the child - live or not.
A typical example of a live vaccine is DTP vaccination (for whooping cough, diphtheria and tetanus). Many parents in this case noticed a deterioration in the well-being of the child after the vaccination.
However, it is worth remembering that short-term lethargy and a rise in temperature are an acceptable negative effect, which does not compare with the danger of diseases from which the vaccine protects.
Why is it forbidden to walk after vaccination?
After the introduction of the vaccine, the child's body begins to fight it - to produce antibodies. At this time, he is considered weakened and runs the risk of picking up some kind of virus in contact with other children.
In what cases it is better to refuse a walk after vaccination, even if the doctor did not forbid walking:- an increase in temperature above 37.5 degrees with a deterioration in general well-being;
- lethargy, fatigue, capriciousness of the child;
- lack of appetite;
- enlarged lymph nodes;
- an allergic reaction to the vaccine (it is urgent to inform the doctor about it).
If the baby is doing well, there is no need to quarantine for more than a day. Especially if you and the baby are not in contact with other children on the street.
