Question by hotmel_007: Is it normal for a Tuberculosis vaccination scar to become red & swollen after a flu/H1N1 vaccination?
My daughter was given the TB vaccination as an infant & it left a circular scar. She’s now 8 years ancient & we went yesterday for our seasonal flu shot & H1N1 pandemic shot. (I don’t know which one was given in which arm) The scar from her TB shot is now red & swollen. Is this normal?

They probably gave her the vaccination near the TB scar. Swelling is a common side effect of vaccinations given with hypodermic needles. It wouldn’t hurt to call the place that administered the vaccination and inquire with them though. It’s always better to be safe than sorry.
