5 days after vaccination my son started getting what looked like hives around his armpits,chest, tummy and back of thighs. They were red circles and slightly raised. We gave him Benadryl but that did nothing. The next day it appeared worse and my son started getting lethargic. No fever. By the Thursday day the hives started spreading to his neck and face, both arms, hands, legs on his chest, tummy and back. Daycare did not allow him to go because they were very concerned. The doctor did prescribe antihistamines for our son. They would work initially, but after about 12 hours we would see the hives come back

We took my son back to the pediatrician the following week (6/23/25) to have him evaluated since it was getting progressively worse. The doctor did not believe it to be a reaction to the vaccination, stating he likely was having a reaction to grass or something else. Our son is outside all day, has been rolling around in grass and dirt since he could crawl and has NEVER had a reaction to anything. He?s never had hives ever before. The only change he had during that time was getting the vaccination. The doctor did not have him tested for anything at that visit.
