Default Flu shot redness

This shot has left my arm a bit sore with a deep red area about 3" in diameter. This is the type of arm redness I had from my first two Moderna shots.

Anyone have a reaction like this at their site of injection of the Flu shot?
This is not uncommon, especially if your immune system is revved up from the covid shots. It’s actually a good sign!
