Mild pain at the site of vaccination is a common side effect of the vaccine. But to evaluate the redness a picture of the area would be needed.
Is there itching also.

It is normal. Don't worry about it. If the pain is more, you can apply ice pack on it

It is quite normal, and shall reduce with time. If the pain is not bearable, then you can take Tab Dolo 650 SOS

Kindly share a picture of vaccination site,
Mild amount of red ness and swelling is very common due to needle injury.
Other reason are allergic reaction and development of cellulitis
