I had the meningitis vaccine monday, and now the injection site is swollen red and numb and hurts when i touch

becouse the injection site is swollen into a big red lump and is numb and hurts when i touch it, does that mean that im allergic to it>???

HELP my meningitis vaccine, my doctor asked me if im allergic to any medications before i took the vaccine, i m not. but does it mean that im allergic to a meddication if my meningitis vaccine, has a side affect of a red bump and its numb.???

No, no , no. No home remedies. Make an appoinment with your doc TODAY! when i had my vacine i didn't have any side effects. You definatly need to go see your doctor or go to the emergency room.

Ice it then put warm teabag on it

Skin will show a reaction against drug eruption. If your vaccination is subcutaneous than it is mostly normal.

And not perform anything on that area incase of it can get infected.

And also check the ingredients of the vaccine for if it contains anything allergic for you.

the swelling at the sight of the injection is normal. If you begin to develop a rash, fever, or headache, or if the area continues to swell call your doctor immediately.

The red bump is normal reaction to vaccines, the numbness you are experiencing could be because of the swelling near the nerve, causing there to be less sensation. take some ibuprophen and apply ice to the area. If it doesnt go away or if the swelling persists call your doctor.

call your doctor and discuss it with him/her!
sounds like a regular reaction to me, however we are not medical professionals,--talk to your doc

First things first STOP touching it. Then call ur doc and ask him or her if u should come in to see them and tell them about ur dilemma or let them ee it for an evaluation.

Site reactions to vaccines are common and this includes swelling and soreness. But, you should call your doctor to let them know and to ease your worry. They should have told you of possible side effects when you got the shot. You can also try this website for info. about the vaccine--there might be some info. there. http://health.divinfo.com/
