How long after vaccine fever?
My little one just got her vaccination today, and the doctor said a slight fever might come. I'm wondering how long that fever usually lasts after a vaccine? She's only 6 months old, so I'm a bit worried.

I got my shot last Friday and developed a mild fever about 12 hours later. It stayed for a day and then completely vanished on Sunday morning. Just take rest and keep some paracetamol ready.
Look, getting a fever within 24 to 48 hours of a vaccine is totally normal. It means your body is building immunity. Just drink water, sleep it off, and don't overthink it.
Usually, the fever starts within a day and goes away in 24-48 hours. Drink warm ginger water and take a light khichdi. If it goes beyond three days, then only think about visiting the doctor.
I know how stressful it is to feel your body heating up after a shot. It is completely normal for the fever to start within 24 hours and stay for a day or two. Just keep deep breathing and rest well.
A mild fever usually starts within 12-24 hours. I avoided my heavy workouts for two days and just did basic stretching at home. Let your immune system do its job without putting extra physical stress on it.
I panicked when my temperature hit 101 after my injection, but the doctor told me it's just the immune response. It dropped back to normal in exactly 36 hours. Just keep tracking it, it is totally fine.

A fever is a standard immune response that usually initiates 12 to 24 hours post-vaccination. Most cases resolve naturally within 48 hours. If the fever is exceptionally high or persists beyond 3 days, please consult your physician.
From what I've been reading on health portals, vaccine-induced fever usually shows up within the first 1 to 2 days. It typically shouldn't last more than 48 hours in most cases.
