When giving a tetanus shot, nurses warn the patient to take a couple of Tylenol and take it easy for the rest of day. The shot can cause mild flu-like symptoms in some, as well as tenderness at the injection site. The shots I have taken have been typical, leaving my arm sore and achy for a couple of days. I also had a knot at the injection site for a few weeks, but that eventually went away.
