Immediately after vaccination, patient developed a hard "golf ball" sized knot at the injection site, along with a small amount of blood (enough for a drop to run down his arm about halfway to his elbow). He reported no other adverse effects, no trouble breathing, no dizziness. I advised him to wait in the waiting area for at least 15 minutes, and after 5 minutes I checked on his knot, which was the same size but not as hard as previously. At 15 minutes it was no change, and he said he felt fine and insisted he was ok to leave. I advised him to keep an eye on it and contact us and his doctor if he has any other adverse reactions or if it doesn't improve or gets worse.
