Swelling-preventing injection
A mumps vaccine is an immunization that protects against mumps, a viral infection causing painful swelling of the salivary glands.
It's typically administered as part of the MMR (measles, mumps, rubella) combination vaccine given to children in two doses.
Most kids get their first mumps vaccine around age one.
