My baby had lump on her injection site 4 days after her dpt vaccine, is that ok?

See below: It is very common to have a lump at the site of any vaccine injection. The lump may last for several days. I would only be concerned if the overlying skin is warm and red.

DPT vaccination: Any vaccine given intramuscular can cause pain and swelling or a lump. Ice application helps . It may last few days to week . If still persist and looks like getting infected , that is redder and painful , get it checked.
