Is Prevnar Or Is Synflorix A Better Vaccine For A Child?

Hello Dr,

My kid is 1.5 yrs old and completed with 2 prevnar vaccines. Now its a turn for PCV Booster. My Pediatrician suggested to go with Synflorix vaccine since my kid has already taken 2 Prevnars.

Which one is better - Prevnar or Synflorix?
Is Synflorix painless injection?

Please suggest. Thanks.
