Why Do I Have A Bubble On The Place Where I Took Injection (Vaxirab)?

I am Nandakumar from India, I ve taken 5 doses of Rabipur shots during July 2010, since i ve bitten by my pet dog last year. However the Dog was doing well & Healthy at present. Also I had taken a one shot of Rabipur & one shot of Vaxirab as a booster last week due in which i had a contact while i washing my pet s wound (The contact is not wound-to-wound)& also i am not sure whether my pet is bitten by rabies infected animals, but my dog is doing well for the past 1 week, nothing observered severe & she is normal ask like as.. In this case. Now I could see a Bubble has devloped in the place where i took injection and it was painfull. I am quite worried, I had took chicken and eggs last week twice.. Please advice in this....

Hello and welcome to healthcare forum.
From your history it seems that you have got infection with pus collection at the injection site also known as injection site abscess.
You need to visit doctor and will require antibiotic, analgesic and if the condition is not resolved then you may require incision and drainage.
Best wishes for your health.
