Ice pack is useless after 24 hours of appearance of swelling.
This is a common problem due to tissue reaction to preservatives in the vaccine.
If not tender to touch,leave it alone,it'll disappear by itself in a few weeks.
But if tender or red in colour,consult your paediatrician for physical examination and treatment.
