Are Fever And Body Pain Common After MMR And Typhoid Vaccine?
Question: my Son 3.5 years is overdue for the MMR 2nd dose and Typhoid vaccine...wanted to check if it can lead to fever and unusual pain?
Brief Answer:
MMR vaccine can lead to mild fever
Detailed Answer:
hi,
Welcome to this forum.
Can understand your concerns.
MMR vaccine can lead to mild fever and rash during 24 hours of giving vaccine.
Typhoid vaccine does not lead to fever.
Since, your child is already more than 3 years old and these vaccines are due, it is very necessary that you give him these vaccines.
The protection that these vaccines provide is very much greater then these small side effects.
In my opinion,you should give this vaccines as soon as possible so that child can be protected against these diseases.
I hope this will help you.
Wishing your child good health.
Take care.
