Tetnus shot

I got a tetnus shot Friday afternoon, due to a cut on my hand.
It is now Wednesday and the area is sore, red, hard and itchy.
Is this normal? Should I return to place where I got it. Any advice will help.

Take some Benadryl to see if that helps. There is some pain associated with it....I think as we get older we become more sensitive to all these injections. If you run a fever or the area swells, by all means call the doc. If all goes well, don't forget about it. Mention it to your doc in your next visit and have it noted in your medical records.
Sounds normal to me, but if it continues or you get worried, please see a doctor.
