can anyone please tell if they had a bruise after the injection or red mark? i had whooping cough injection on 5feb and now got bruise type mark on the arm. is it normal?

Yes this is fine, sometimes te nurse who gives the injection may not be as gentle and causes a bruise or she may have hit a muscle. Also happen when the nurse takes blood sometimes i bruise a lot and sometimes not.

Or it could be a slight reaction in the area from the injection, but I don't think it will be as its not a live bacteria

I got like a red rash over the site of the injection. After visiting the Dr he said as long as I didnt develop a fever or it didnt get any worse or start iching then it should be ok. After about 10 days or so it went completly.
