Hard lump on baby's right leg 14 days after vaccinations?

Hello. My 13-month-old got her one-year vaccinations 14 days ago. She now has a hard, red lump on her leg. I noticed it yesterday. Today, the redness has spread, and now it looks like there are 3 (or 4?) little heads. The bump feels bigger, but I can't be sure. The bump is not itchy and does not seem to cause her pain. She is her regular self. I don't know if it is related to her vaccines or if it's something else.

Hello

Yes vaccines can cause a little reaction like this. Some Tylenol and cold compress will help.
If the redness increases, take her to see her doctor
