Hi, just wondered if any of your horses have ever had a reaction to their annual flu/tet vaccination? My horse was given his booster on Friday and the vet opted for administering it into his chest saying that any reaction would be better there than on the neck. Noticed today that one of his chest muscles at the base of the neck is swollen and a bit warm, you can feel a little bump which is probably the needlemark. He was fine to be ridden and do believe it to be a reaction to the vaccination as he is a senstitive chap when it comes to his skin (!) but just wondered if anyone else has heard of this or could it be anything else? Thanks in advance
