My baby is getting her second vaccination this week and im worried that she might have fever please inform me on what to do when child get fussy and sick after vaccination i want to be ready
At 2 months your baby should be receiving the following vaccines: 1st dose of DTaP (diphtheria, tetanus, acellular pertussis), 1st dose of HiB (hemophilus influenza B), 2nd dose of hepatitis B vaccine, and 1st polio vaccine dose. Two other vaccines not mandated by the Lebanese ministry of health but required by the center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) are the PCV (pneumococcal vaccine; against a bacteria that commonly causes otitis, pneumonia and meningitis) and Rotavirus vaccine (causes severe diarrhea in small babies).
These vaccines, mainly the Hib and PCV cause fever, but any temperature that goes above 38.3 degrees Celsius should prompt you to seek medical attention immediately because of your baby’s young age. The local injection area may be painful and endurated (becomes hard) and you can apply warm compresses on it and give Panadol as instructed by your pediatrician. Rotavirus may cause mild diarrhea but that is Ok

Annual Checkup
It is recommended that all individuals see a Family Doctor for a full medical examination annually. Adults should get their blood pressure checked (US Preventive Task Force), a flu vaccine (CDC) and more each year.
The American Dental Association recommends dental cleanings for adults at least twice annually. Some stains can only be removed by a professional cleaning.
It’s recommended by the American Academy of Ophthalmology that every adult between the ages of 18 and 80 does an eye examination at least once every two years.
It's recommended by the American Cancer Association that every adult between the age of 20 and 80 does an annual skin screening by a licensed dermatologist.
