Flu Jab

Hi all,

I got my flu jab on Saturday morning and it has started being quite itchy this evening along with a raised red lump that I've had since yesterday. I've never had a flu jab before so I'm not sure if these are normal symptoms.. any help/reassurance would be wonderful!

Yes I got a warm red raised patch that was itchy this year. It's never been itchy before but most people who I've spoken to, said theirs was too.
