Hello,
As per your history, it may be due to vaccination.
Don't worry, fever is common after vaccination.
For that, you can give syp acetaminophen as prescribed by pediatrician.
It will subside within 3 to 4 days. Keep him hydrated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
