Hi,
Local underlying subcutaneously collection or fibrosis or hardness or lunch formation may be normal variant after intramuscular injection but can be sign of local inflammation so need to be reviewed by your primary care physician before continuing second dose of the injection. Using local anti inflammatory drugs like Ibuprofen gel may be helpful.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Wishing you a speedy recovery.
