This is very much common when 1 St does of TT. Just an antepyretic will do. During your 2 ND dose TT, you will not experience the same. So contact directly for more details and discussion and share me a picture of the injection site as well

Visit your Gynaec directly for examination. It’s uncommon symptoms with TT injection.
