The fever could be from either. Usually fever lasts 24-72 hours from the vaccines given at the 4 month visit. But babies can get fevers with colds also.
If the fever hasn't stopped by tomorrow, or if she develops more concerning symptoms then call her doctor. But probably the fever will be gone in another day or so.

The fact of the matter is the Cortisone shots may work well for some and other not at all. The bad part is that they don't reccomend more then 2 in a years time. If you are still having severe pain then I would suggest that you have him either get another MRI and find the problem or do an Exploritory surgery and find what's wrong. You might also consider a nerve block, these tend to last allot longer (usually perminant) but depending on hwat nerve it is it might cause tohe loss of feeling in your foot. You can also try some electro nerve therapy or a tens unit which uses electricity to reduce the pain. These units work real well and are portable smaller then a cd player and can be worn anytime. The last thing is to find a pain specialist and see what they can do. they make lidocaine patches that will numb your painfull area and other medications that will stop the pain but may put you to sleep. My reccomendation is to find the under lying cause and have it corrected.

Since she had symptoms of something else before the shots I would call her doctor just to be sure.
In most areas doctors are supposed to give you sheets with information about the shots on them. This information includes what the shot is exactly for, the side effects from it and how common they are, and how long they can last. Some shots (I do not remember which ones) have effects that can last up to a week and others are just 24-48 hours.

Take her back in- or call ask a nurse, or something like that. The child's doctor should have asked about general health before the shots- it's not wise for children to receive vaccines when they are ill.

My kids doctor use to tell me that it would take them about four to five days and that they would have mild fever, but if her temperature is too high, then you should call her doctor, better safe than sorry . . . also, for her stuffy nose make sure you have her sleeping with a vaporizer, that tends to smooth their breathing and help them sleep better at night......

She might have allergies or a cold.
Sometimes people get a reaction from injections. This could be a simple irritation at the injection site or a low-grade fever.
Her congestion is unlikely related to the injection.

It would be a VERY GOOD THING if you go straight back to your child's doctor or to the hospital to get your baby checked out. It's better safe than sorry!!!!!!!
