I took DS for shots a few months ago, and I left the band aid on for maybe a day. When I took it off, it looked red but I just figured it was irritited. Over the next few days the spot became a huge welt, and it was the exact shape of the bandaid, except the spot where the gauze is was clear. It took a month to clear up! Now I ask for gauze and just hold it until he stops bleeding, but I don't know what I will do if he ever needs to stop bleeding over a longer period.

Anyone have this experience with their LO or with yourself? It looks like he is allergic to the adhesive on the bandaid ( bandage was latex free). He had many shots with same band aids before this occurred. Thanks!
