Flu Shot Symptoms

9. Swelling
People with allergies will often experience swelling. It is a part of the body’s reaction to the presence of an allergen in many people. Such swellings are often not something to be concerned about, depending on the patients allergies and how they normally react to the presence of allergens.
Some people who have just had a flu shot will develop swelling around the eyes and around their mouths. This is not a normal reaction to the shot and is a sign that the patient is having a bad reaction to it. Swelling like this should encourage you to seek medical assistance as soon as possible.
