tiny lump underneath reta injection site? please help!

I just pinned my second dose of reta, (i previously used Mounjaro before deciding to make the switch because of the price difference and some side effects i wasn’t loving anymore).

Anyways, 2 weeks in and last time the injection site stayed slightly red and sore for a few days following, felt like a pretty good bruise. I’ve just noticed now that i can feel about a pea sized lump right where i injected (which about 20 minutes ago now) I never noticed this with MJ. Now lets be clear i never checked so it could’ve been happening but i’m just wondering if this is at all normal? I’ll obviously find out in the next couple days if it comes up sore again like last time but anyone have any information or advice?

this is literally something that would happen to only me. Basically both me and my mom are on MJ and after a long day at work I (clearly without thinking) went into the fridge, grabbed my pen, pinned my dose & went on my way getting ready for bed. I’ve just gone back & realised I grabbed and dosed from her 15mg pen instead of my 5. We have had a laugh about it but i’m not sure what to do now. Thoughts? Prayers? has anyone else had experience (accidental or not) going up a dose by THAT much? what happens? This was only an hr or so ago so i feel fine right now but a bit anxious for the night ahead 😬😬😬
