TT vaccine given on waist with mild pain/stiffness is normal. Standard injection site is deltoid (upper arm), but gluteal/waist also acceptable. Local reaction common. Apply ice, take paracetamol if needed. Pain resolves in 2-3 days. If severe swelling, fever, or allergic reaction, see doctor. Vaccine protects against tetanus - important immunization.
Tetanus toxoid injection can be given in the upper arm or gluteal region.You may feel soreness around the injection area for a day or two.Apply ice pack
TT injection often cause pain for 24hrs after injection
If it's a mild pain ,then nothing to worry
TT can be given in deltoid or gluteal region but should be given intramuscularly
Wait for 24 more hours and still if pain persist then I recommend to give hot fomentation, apply icepack or consult and connect with me for further information
T.T vaccine is given intramuscularly.. deltoid muscle is preferred but can be given in gluteal region
And the stiffness after vaccination is not a big deal it subside by itself in some days if it causing pain,you can try
1)hot fomentation
2)thrombophobe ointment apply locally
Next Steps
follow above advice if not relieved then do consult a consultant physician
Not good site, but since it has been done, do some hot and cold compression. If there is blueish discoloration, apply thrombophobe ointment over it, 2 to 3 times daily.
Tab combiflam one every 8hours for 3 days, after meals.
