Asking for Self, Female, 29 years old, Lahore
Aoa. Asking for 11 months old baby. Is it necessary to have birth injection (hep b,bcg) mark on arm?
Vaccinator said ye injection swell kre ga or mark ban jai ga. He said agar ye na phula tou phr say lagana pare ga. I've asked him when my baby was 5 months old k nishan ni bna he said wait for 2,3 months ban jai ga.
But my baby's arm has no mark of it, neither it got swell.
Kindly guide further.
