Inoculation (mumps): reaction, as carried by children

Vaccination is a complex process that scares many parents. And children as well. Diseases constantly mutate, threatening the health of the population. For the purpose of additional protection, vaccinations have been invented. Or rather, vaccination. It is noted that people who have been vaccinated against certain diseases, are better able to cope with the real disease when infected. But not always. And immunity is formed only for a certain time. For example, for 5 years. Therefore, most parents are thinking: is it necessary to vaccinate?

Before making a final decision, they are interested in the consequences of vaccination with this or that drug, as well as the ease with which the child can tolerate medical intervention. What to expect if the baby was vaccinated? Parotitis is a serious illness. But vaccination will help to avoid it. The question is: is there anything to fear after the procedure? And in what situations is it necessary to raise panic and seek medical attention?

What kind of disease?

Parotitis is a disease that is popularly called mumps. As practice shows, it develops mainly in children. It is viral in nature. It is easily transmitted by airborne droplets. It affects the salivary glands, as well as the endocrine and nervous systems.

Approximately 3 weeks the disease does not manifest itself. The most common symptoms of mumps include pain when opening the mouth, swelling of the salivary glands, temperature. With these signs, parotitis is suspected.

As a rule, adults rarely suffer from this disease. Most often mumps are susceptible to minors from 3 to 15 years. Therefore, in Russia, an inoculation against this disease was introduced. Usually it is administered together with some other vaccines. What is required to know about this process?

One injection - several diseases

For example, the fact that a single vaccine against mumps does not exist. In Russia there is an inoculation under the name of the CCP. It is done several times throughout the life of the child. The vaccination calendar lists the first vaccination per year, the second vaccination at 6 years. Further in 15. And after that, from the 22nd anniversary, the appropriate vaccination is required to be done every 10 years.

This vaccine is designed to protect the child from measles, mumps and rubella. That's why it's called the CCP. Only parents do not know exactly how the vaccine is transferred. That's what scares. Perhaps the consequences will seem more serious to someone than the diseases from which the injection will protect the child. So why prepare?

About the method of vaccination

Intramuscular injection is done. Parotitis, rubella, measles, thanks to the drug, will no longer threaten the baby. For children up to 3 years, the appropriate injection is made in the thigh. And after the specified age - in the shoulder. Only 1 injection is allowed. More about any features of the procedure is not said.

Usually, children are not too prepared in advance. Therefore, more and more often parents are interested in how easily the vaccine is transferred. After all, the baby will be introduced into the body of several components. It is about the components of measles, rubella and mumps. In fact, it is necessary to fight with several diseases. But in some cases, you can choose the drug to which the child is vaccinated. There are vaccines:

• Imported - PDA;
• Domestic - measles and mumps;
• Indian - from measles or rubella.

But there is no vaccination separately from mumps. Therefore, it is necessary, as already mentioned, to study the possible consequences. What should I look for? Immunizations from mumps, rubella and measles are being transferred? Are there any grounds for fear? What reactions are considered normal, and which are pathologies?

Norm - no reaction

The thing is that every organism is individual. That is, everyone can have their own reaction to this or that medical intervention. And this factor must be taken into account. Nevertheless, doctors assure that the vaccine protects the vaccine from mumps: the parotitis after the introduction of the drug to the baby is not threatened.

This vaccine does not cause any negative reactions from the body. Normally, the child will not face any consequences of the injection. Is that the baby in 12 months will be hysterical. But it is not caused by the action of the vaccine, but by a direct injection. This procedure frightens children. Yes, and you can not call it pleasant. Therefore, one should not be frightened if the baby started crying after vaccination with measles, mumps. This reaction is completely normal.

But this is an ideal scenario. Usually there is no reaction to these vaccines, but it is not necessary to exclude certain phenomena. What is it about? What manifestations of the reaction from the body are considered the norm? When you should not panic?

Temperature

The most common reaction to any medical intervention, accompanied by injections, is fever. And this is often the result of vaccination. Parotitis is a disease that is eliminated by the proposed vaccine. It can also cause a fever in the baby.

Often, a similar phenomenon occurs within the first 14 days of vaccination. As a rule, the child's temperature will stay at 39.5 degrees. Do not panic. Doctors say that this is a normal reaction. Call a specialist at home if you are worried about the condition of a crumb.

How to deal with such a manifestation after vaccination (measles, rubella, parotitis)? First of all, it is necessary to prepare antipyretic agents. And they shoot down the temperature. It will be elevated, usually about 5 days. In rare cases, the temperature may rise over the course of all two weeks. This phenomenon can also cause chills. This situation is not an excuse for panic, but without attention and observation it can not be left in any case.

Rashes

What's next? The inoculation (measles, mumps) is carried by children and adults, usually without any complications. But it is possible that a small red rash will appear on the body. Usually it spreads over the arms, legs, face, body of a person. It is expressed by red spots.

This effect lasts about a week, a maximum of 10 days. Treatment does not require any. Passes independently. There is no discomfort to a person, except for the aesthetic component. After vaccination of mumps, rubella and measles, rashes are considered quite normal. Spots do not itch, do not hurt, do not itch. It's just a rash that does not carry any danger.

The lymph nodes

What's next? What other signs and reactions from the body need to pay attention if the baby is vaccinated? Certainly, at a certain age helps to fight against measles, mumps (a year). How is it transferred? Doctors say that possible side effects such as temperature and rash on the body.

In some cases, the child may have lymph nodes. This is not dangerous. As in previous situations, this phenomenon does not require treatment. After a while it passes by itself. For the child, no danger. Therefore, do not panic. And go to the doctor, too. He just confirms that an increase in lymph nodes is normal, if a baby is vaccinated against a disease such as parotitis. After vaccination, this is a very common phenomenon.

Pain

What else can be a reaction? The vaccine (parotitis, measles, rubella) is, as already said, in the shoulder. Very small children - in the hip. It is possible that the site of the injection will be ill for some time. This is another sign that should not be feared. Pleasant in it it is not enough, but in some hours after carrying out of a nyxis the pain will cease. No medication for investment should be taken. And even more so, you should not give anesthetic medicine to young children.

Not only pain can torment the baby after vaccination. Cory, mumps, thanks to the vaccine, can be avoided. But what should we expect in the form of side effects? For example, a little redness near the injection site. Or the formation of swelling in the area where the vaccine was administered. This phenomenon is also not considered cause for concern. If we are talking about older children who are injected into the shoulder, the pain in their hand is not excluded. In some cases, muscles begin to ache. In this situation, you should not strain your hand once more. No more prevention is required.

Boys

What other reactions can cause a vaccine? Parotitis is a dangerous disease, but it is possible to prevent the disease through an injection. And what about the consequences of vaccination? Among the far from the most common phenomena, but taking place, one can distinguish the sickness of the testicles in boys. To cause panic in the parents of a similar phenomenon should not. In connection with this manifestation, babies become restless.

Like all the above listed reactions, the soreness of the testicles in the boys does not cause any harm. On the childbearing function does not affect. Therefore, you should not worry about it. It's enough just to go through a period of soreness. If the pain is extremely severe (and only older children can report it), consult a specialist. He will prescribe a drug that will alleviate the suffering somewhat. In the case of young children, you do not need anything. It is just necessary to wait until this phenomenon passes. And, of course, to soothe the child in all possible ways.

Consequences - an allergy

And now a little about the consequences of vaccination. Parotitis, rubella and measles you will be able to avoid thanks to the vaccine. But remember that this injection is a serious test for the body. The point is that ideally, as already mentioned, there are no side effects and negative consequences. But such situations do not exclude that vaccination is not the best way to affect the body.

After all, any vaccine is an unpredictable intervention. The most dangerous consequence is an allergic reaction. Usually manifested by a rash (urticaria) or anaphylactic shock. The second option, according to statistics, is extremely rare after a drug has been introduced that protects against a disease called parotitis. After vaccination, there is usually a simple allergy.

In such a situation, parents should report the experience of the pediatrician before re-vaccination. It is likely that the child has an individual intolerance to the protein or some component of the vaccine. Then you will have to refrain from repeated injections. This is how the vaccine works (measles mumps). A reaction to it can be various. What other consequences are taking place to some extent? It is also important for them to know about each parent. After all, as already mentioned, any vaccination is a risk.

The brain and nervous system

Often children are vaccinated per year. Measles, rubella, parotitis are diseases against which it is directed. Sometimes vaccination can affect the nervous system and the brain. Fortunately, such consequences are extremely rare. Therefore, they should not be greatly feared. But to take into account a similar scenario should follow.

After vaccination, autism may manifest to varying degrees, multiple sclerosis, as well as other diseases of the nervous system. It is these consequences that developed in some children after vaccination. Nevertheless, doctors say that the vaccine is completely safe, citing a simple coincidence. The population does not trust this data very much. It hurts a lot of coincidence. Therefore, it is possible to consider diseases of the brain and nervous system as extremely rare consequences of this vaccination.

Cold

But this is not all the consequences and side effects. The vaccine is most often tolerated. Parotitis can be prevented only by vaccinating babies. If the child does get sick anyway, the ailment will proceed in mild form.

Often after the introduction of the drug in the baby can develop and banal ARI. What is it about? The fact that the previously mentioned vaccines quite often cause the reaction of the body, which looks like a cold disease. The child has a runny nose, a cough or a fever (it has already been said about). Redness of the throat is also possible.

These symptoms are recommended to consult a doctor. It is likely that vaccination (parotitis, rubella, measles) weakened immunity, which was the impetus for a real infection of the common cold. You can not leave it without attention. Otherwise, the child can become seriously ill. And the exact treatment can be selected only by a doctor. Parents should report that the child was vaccinated by the CCP. This is an important information that affects the treatment prescribed.

Prick - infection

After the vaccination (measles-mumps), you can face another not the best phenomenon. It, like the defeat of the brain and the central nervous system, frightens parents the most. What is it about? The fact is that after vaccination, the infection of a child with one or another disease is not excluded. That is, if a baby is vaccinated against measles, rubella and mumps, it is likely that he will become infected with one of these diseases. Or just a few.

In other words, infection during vaccination is possible. But, as statistics show, such complications are extremely rare. Less common than all other consequences and side effects. Children with reduced immunity are usually infected. Or those who started vaccination soon after the illness. And any, even the usual cold is enough.

In any case, parents should know: the age at which the baby is vaccinated is one year. Cory, rubella, mumps in this case you will not see later. But before the procedure it is recommended to study the signs of certain diseases. And at the first manifestations, consult a doctor for advice. If you start treatment on time, you can cure the child at any age without any special problems. By the way, if a person has recovered, then it is extremely difficult to get a second infection. The body develops immunity. As a result, repeated vaccinations will not be required.

Memo for parents

Now it is possible to sum up everything that has been said about the vaccination of the CCP. This procedure is included in the national vaccination schedule. The first injection is done in 12 months. Repeated - at 6 years. Then - at 14-15. After this, it takes 10 years to vaccinate, starting at the age of 22. Typically well tolerated similar vaccinations, mumps, rubella, measles, they will help to avoid. But the following reactions are not excluded:

• allergy;
• temperature increase;
• Symptoms of SARS;
• rash;
• Soreness of the injection site;
• Pain in testicles in boys;
• Enlarged lymph nodes.

In some cases, there may be an infection with a disease from which the child is vaccinated. Or the vaccine will contribute to the emergence of problems with the CNS / brain. That's why it's worthwhile to carefully monitor the baby's health. Before vaccination, pay attention to:

1. Blood and urine tests. General indicators are required. They come to the therapist for advice.
2. General condition of the child. Any malaise is an excuse for delaying the vaccination.
3. If the child has recently been ill, it is better not to vaccinate.

Some parents make up an individual vaccination schedule. In addition, you can donate blood for the presence of antibodies to measles, mumps and rubella. If they are (sometimes it happens, this is a feature of the body), then no vaccinations for these diseases will be required.
