Answer #1

Common reactions to the tetanus vaccine include - redness, swelling, soreness where the vaccine is given (arm). Soreness is body's natural response to a foreign invader. It is a sign that the immune system is responding by synthesizing antibodies and other immunity components that offer the protection from getting actual viral infection. Soreness typically lasts for one or two days after administration of vaccine.
