Allergic reaction or something else

I’m on my 7th injection and the next day I had a lump where I injected and it was a little itchy. Have I done something wrong this time or is it a reaction? Should I leave it a bit longer before the next one?

I think I've read this happens when an Injection isnt deep enough

As long as you are not feeling unwell I wouldn't worry. If you are get it checked out

Not feeling off in anyway just got an itchy patch on my leg a bit like when I get bitten by an itchy bug or mosquitoe. I might not have gone right into the muscle so I think u might be right
