Vaccine

[Thhop]

Hi there, I've been really worried about this. When my baby girl had her baby vaccines a while back. I noticed when the nurse took the needle out of my daughters arm, clear solution ran down my daughters arm. I now worry she didnt have correct dosage and isnt protected.

Has this happened to anyone else?

I think it's quite normal for a bit to be left on the skin, they have to put some of the vaccine through the needle to clear out any air bubbles in the syringe so it could just be this that's been left on the skin and won't affect the actual vaccination. I have to inject insulin daily at the moment and quite often I have some left on my leg from the bit I have to put through the needle first.If you're really concerned though call your surgery and see if you can call a call back for a chat to see if they can give you some reassurance.

Thankyou so much for your reply. You have made me feel better. I know I'm a worrier and probably been over the top. Thankyou again x
