Tetanus injection in pregnancy

2022-06-16 13:45:23
Hello I'm currently 23 weeks pregnant. I just had my first tetanus shot taken yesterday. It was on my left hip. The injection site has swollen a little since morning & I'm experiencing pain. I'm unable to sleep on my left side. What can I do for relief?
