Symptom narrative

Mother reported that adverse symptoms began roughly 3 hours after vaccination. Symptoms began with pruritic eyes and eyelid swelling. Mom gave eye drops and oral benadryl and tylenol, per the box dosing instructions. 5-10 minutes post-medication, the eyelid swelling was reduced, but not gone. Mom continued to give benadryl and tylenol around the clock as symptoms were not resolved. In the evening, the facial swelling increased but mom denied shortness of breath, rash, or fever. Patient describes swelling as "puffy bunny face." Symptoms were resolved after the first night (ie, no symptoms since 3/4/25). Of note, Mom denied that patient was exposed to any new items. Mom denied any similar occurrence with prior vaccines. Patient was not treated at a medical facility for symptoms.
