Post flu injection

[MidiMitch]

Can anyone give me advice? Had my flu injection yesterday. My arm is quite red now where I had it and hot to touch. Still feels a bit sore. I feel perfectly fine otherwise. Completely normal?

Totally normal. Mine was the same. It was one of the possible side effects I was warned about. The nurse actually asked me what side I lay on to sleep and gave me it in the opposite arm just in case. It was the one side effect she had too when she got it

Yes I had mine last week and my arm was sore and a bit red and swollen but it settled down after a couple of days.

I was advised to take paracetamol for any discomfort and it soon settled down.

Thanks xxx
