Some people might react to the flu shot but these reactions are very rare
We have all probably heard about some horror story about the possible side effects of the flu vaccine. Of course, side effects are a possibility. The most common include redness, muscle aches, and a slight fever. In most people, these side effects are temporary. However, it is important to note that in some rare cases a severe allergic can occur and this usually occurs to some other ingredient in the vaccine. Therefore, it is crucial to speak to your doctor if you know or have a suspicion that you might be allergic to one of the ingredients in the vaccine. They will let you know if the flu vaccine is right for you (or not).
If it is too late, and you do experience an adverse reaction, they can provide you on how to best go about dealing with it.
