Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! It is normal to have a bubble at the site of the injection. If Mack seems painful when you touch it I would apply an ice pack to the area for about 10 minutes 3-4 times today. It should go away in the next couple of days. If the lump is there tomorrow use a warm (not hot) compress. Good luck and kisses to Mack!
