Ok please someone tell me the injection spot swells up? It's like an oval shape about 2" long and maybe 1" wide, just off her spine towards the right side behind the shoulder. She got her DHPP booster and rabies on the 7th, a little over a week ago. How did i not notice this before? I push it around and it doesn't seem to bother her. I look under the fur and there is no redness. it feels harder than fatty tissue, but not as hard as a knot. Do you think b/c she got two shots that's why it is oval in shape and not round?

I called the vet and they said they do swell up and that I need to massage it? But I can't remember if she got her shot on her right side or her left side.

Should I bring her in again, or am I being too paranoid?
