Hi,

It is not clear which injection you have given. It seems you have given the BCG injection and Polio (oral).

These vaccine are also given after birth in some institutions. Oral Polio vaccine can be repeated many times also.

So if the injection is BCG, you need not worry. Else visit your local pediatrician to get the baby examined clinically.

Hope I have answered your queries. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Arunava Biswas
