Leg pain after receiving 13-valent pneumonia vaccine can be relieved by applying hot compresses with towels. If it is caused by infection or other reasons, it is recommended to take antibiotics such as roxithromycin under the guidance of a doctor for treatment.
Normally, the site of 13-valent pneumonia vaccine for infants is the anterolateral thigh muscle, so leg pain may occur after 13-valent pneumonia vaccination.
If the leg pain is due to a normal post-vaccination adverse reaction, it must not be rubbed or massaged at the site of vaccination, and hot compresses can be applied with a towel to promote local blood circulation and faster absorption of the medication.
If the leg pain is caused by localized infection after vaccination, it is recommended to go to the hospital for examination and take antibiotics such as Roxithromycin under the doctor’s guidance to fight the infection.
