Brief Answer:
High resolution ultrasonography

Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Thanks for your query.
If I am getting this right, your child was immunized 25 days back with Comvac in thigh muscle. There is still little hardness you can feel.

Since this is already 25 days, you can get high resolution ultrasonography done to make sure what exactly is the problem inside. This will tell whether there is a collection or just an organized thing or a scar tissue.
Secondly if there is no problem in movement of the thigh, nothing much to worry about.
Please do not apply anything locally, do not massage at all.
Body takes care of such things on its own.
Some intervention is required only if there is a collection or there is some sign indicating the necessity.

Please give me feedback about the high resolution ultrasonography report.
