Is Swelling Of Underarm Normal Post Tetanus Shot?

Hi. I had my tetanus shot the other day. I know the reaction is to have a swollen arm. But yesterday, even my underarm where the shot was done hurts and is swollen. Not sure if there is also a swollen lymph node (but seems like it). Is that normal from getting the vaccination?
