Answer:

Yes, there is a need to assure the client that this is a normal reaction.

Explanation:

In the given case, it is the duty of a nurse to assure the patient that swelling takes place while performing intradermal vaccination. As with the administration of disease-specific antigens, the injected area inflames that generally takes place due to the development of antibodies against the presented antigens.  

Thus, both the patient and the nurse need to be calm in such a situation and should leave the swelling open so that it can get heal by itself. In case, if one applies ice packs or rubs the affected area, it can enhance the condition and may result in more issues.
