What are the vaccines called in foreign countries where they result in deformed skin around the area?

I think everyone has these who have vaccinated.  The skin really shouldn't look deformed more like a very small crater.

Good grief, I just answered this about 4 minutes ago. Shots themselves do not damage the area of injection. It is the material that is being injected that causes the damage. Ordinary medications, innoculations, etc. given by a Doctor do not cause damage. Street drugs such as heroine, cause irreversible damage to the sight of injection. That is why IV drug users have track marks. Look at diabetics. They give themselves injections daily with no damage or signs that they have injected anything. If you are so worried and want such hard evidence perhaps you should talk to your doctor or some health care professional.

Your skin is made up of two layers. The outer layer is called the epidermis and the lower level is the dermis. The outer layer (epidermis) produces an oily substance called sebum. You can see this substance when you touch a window or mirror and your "oily" fingerprint is left there. One job sebum does is it keeps water out of your skin—a job that it does very well. However, after long periods of time in a swimming pool, shower, or bathtub, much of the sebum is washed off and your outer layer of skin starts to absorb water. As it absorbs water it swells, but since the epidermis is "tied" down to your dermis in certain spots, it expands more where it is not "tied" down and this causes your skin to wrinkle. The difference between your skin and a raisin is that raisins wrinkle because they shrink, but your skin wrinkles because it is getting bigger.

There are a number of disadvantages of vaccines which affect its effectiveness.\n\n \n1. Side effects – Side effects occur from all types of vaccines. These side effects can range from mild reactions, redness and swelling at the site of the injection, to severe reactions like arthritis and brain damage.\n2. Ease of use – Most of the vaccinations used today to prevent disease must be injected into the person’s bloodstream. This procedure must be carried out by trained healthcare professionals. The use of healthcare professionals makes vaccines an expensive procedure and therefore unsuitable for use in the third world. One exception to this is the Oral Polio Vaccine, which is popular in the Third World as well as developed countries because of its ease of administration.\n3. Immunity does not develop in response to a vaccine.- This occurs most commonly after the BCG in certain countries and races. The BCG provides little or no protection to the Negro population against tuberculosis. For this reason it is not widely used outside Europe.\n4. Parents who have their children vaccinated assume that their children are then protected against the disease but this is not necessarily true. For example, Fife in Scotland had a 96% vaccination density but was afflicted by a measles epidemic in 1991/1992. It is generally considered that once an area has a 95%+ vaccination density, an epidemic will not occur.\n5. Vaccinated children who develop measles from the wild strain may not be diagnosed with measles since they do not show the typical signs and symptoms of measles.\n6. Vaccines run the risk of recombination with related wild strains or vaccine strains. The possible consequences and results of this are unknown to date.\n7. Despite a high degree of hygiene, it is impossible to rule out the risk of contamination of vaccines. Animal cells may be contained in the vaccines and these could rearrange our genetic makeup. Also other diseases may contaminate the vaccines causing serious consequences.\n8. The body may develop tolerance to antigens using the same principle seen in the treatment of hay fever and asthma. To treat these, the patient is injected with small amounts of the allergen (pollen etc.) in order to weaken the effect of the allergen.

There was a vaccine until about Spring 2002.  It was called LYMErix but was discontinued due to very low sales and possible ineffectiveness.  I guess it wasn't popular enough with doctors!

are they usually on their upper arm?  if so then it's probably immunizations you have to get before you go into a different passport.  my dad was in the air force and spent alot of time in korea and he has the same markings.  what they do is have one big gun type thing that gives you all the shots at once so it will speed up things and it's easier to do than one at a time.

I live in Japan. It's pretty hygenic in a lot of ways but also backwards in others. People often brush their teeth regularly, several times a day but since they don't use fluoride and still somewhat treasure crooked teeth dental problems and cavities are extreemely common. Sex is scary here. In reality, condoms are the most common form of protection but abortion is said to be the depended on form of birth contol. One in five Japanese women has chlamydia When people get sick here they often wear masks to prevent them from passing it on to others but few will skip out on work out of duty. I don't think Japanese doctors are as extensively educated as western doctors either, but I have no stats on that. Cancer treatment, for one, is well behind that in the west and antibiotics are overprescribed (opinion-but they are given even when the doctor says you just have a cold). Oddly, Japanese think nothing of eating raw beef, raw eggs, or anything out of the ocean but raw vegetables like broccoli or carrots are unthinkable. Granted, Japanese standards on beef, dairy and fish are probably stricter than in America but it's still surprising. Another facet is the often destructive influence of mass thinking here. For instance, the cancer causing chemical Radon is often added to "Recuperative spas" because it is thought to have health benefits. Otherwise, pollution standards are reputedly lower here than in much of the west.

well im from Russia and have been back many times.\nthere are no necessary shots for that part of the world...Russia is not a 3rd world country, its not like ur going to India or Africa or the tropics where they have all sorts of fun illnesses.\nthe typical precautions should be taken (ie drink ONLY sealed bottled water, make sure your food is fully cooked and dont eat at shady places, dont eat at outdoor markets) the worst that will happen is u get traveler's diarrhea. As Russian climate is not that warm, there are not insect-related diseases and no recent outbreaks of anything.  its the same as going to Europe. Unless of course ur going to be staying in some backwards village...

No, not necessarily.  There are different strains of TB, some of which may not be entirely prevented by the vaccination.  This vaccine is for the most common strains.\nAlso, if the vaccine itself happened to be manufactured poorly, this would of course lessen the degree of protection.

They're called liver/age spots (which is actually nothing to do with the liver) and they do form pretty much everywhere, hands are just readily avaliable.
