Tenderness and lump after hepatitis b vaccine?


I had to get my first hepatitis b vaccine yesterday before starting my new job. It stung a little when they were injecting the stuff in but all night long my arm hurt and today it's tender to the touch, hurts if I move my arm and there is a lump where they shot it in. Is this normal? I got a tetanus shot on my other arm and last time I got the tetanus shot I remember my arm being pretty sore, but this time it's way less tender than the HepB shot.

yes, i've gotten them. and also give them all the time as i am a nurse. they can make your arm really sore. it will go away, and the lump will too.

Please make sure that you report any vaccine reaction to
VAERS http://vaers.hhs.gov/ for vaccine information please visit these sites www.nvic.org and www.novaccine.com

Be Well Report It
