  • The person giving you the injection missed the target point in your arm. Always thoroughly relax your arm before an injection. It saves the pain.
  • Mine wasn't sore - but I had a big lump under the skin where the injection was given for wks.
  • its sore because its a chilled solution injected into the muscle. when you inject things into the muscle...the muscle ends up sore...like you were working out or something.
  • I got a tetanus shot in the ER on Monday and have a painful lump with redness and PAIN. I called the ER and the nurse told me they missed the muscle and it sounds like it's infected. I asked if I should come back and have it looked at and she said YES, but I'd be billed for another ER visit. I'm so upset! Shouldn't they have to correct their mistake? Any thoughts?
