Swollen area in collarbone 4 days after 2nd Pfizer.

Is this normal?
It took me ages to pluck up the courage to get the jabs as I suffer from overwhelming health anxiety.
Felt nauseous for 2 days after the first then ok.
Had the 2nd on Saturday afternoon and have felt ok since but yesterday my collarbone felt a bit sore (same side of body as I had the jab). Arm pit on that side ok and the injection site doesn’t really hurt much. Today I notice there’s a swelling in that area.
It’s set my anxiety into overdrive (just can’t rationalise when it sets in!).
Of course I have googled which was ridiculously silly of me.
Is this common/normal?

I had this after 2nd dose, it is an uncommon reaction but just the lymph glands reacting. I was told it was fine and it went after a few days. The booster jab gave me no reaction at all.

I had this. It’s your lymph nodes. I had them come up in my neck, collar bone and armpit of the side I had my jab

Have a Google and find out where all your glands are. It can be reassuring when one is activated and doing its job. Those buggers can be painfil.
