A member asked:
Is it normal to have a bruise after having a hepatitis vaccine? it still hurts after several months and i can feel a little lump inside. what do i do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes it could be: A normal bruise after any injection. Applying warm packs and taking nsaids/ ibuptofen may help relieve the swelling. See ur dr if there's pus, more swelling and redness. Take care!
