What Causes Pain In Groin Area After Tetanus Shot?
I got a tetanus shot on right side hip yesterday. Today i can feel pain which is ok. But i can also feel pain in the groin region, the exact spot is where the inguinal hernia is present. This pain was previously not there. Is it temporary or a muscle swelling because of tetanus shot ? I pains only if i try to press it. I can walk comfortably though.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Your pain is probably different from the injection induced pain. This could be due muscle strain. Do not worry, put ice on the painful area, take analgesics oral or topical, rest yourself, pain will subside hopefully.
I hope I have answered your question. If you have further queries, I'm happy to help you.
