Vaccine / Covid Arm Question

2 replies

First vaccine - no issue, straight in, didn't feel it, no pain afterwards.

Had my second vaccine a couple of weeks ago and the doctor giving it did it really slowly, it hurt at the time, and I am still in a lot of pain moving my arm, particularly lifting up and moving sideways.

Is this normal covid arm? and any treatment, I've been taking codeine but it's not really hitting the pain once I move it.

Covid arm isn't a "thing" as this is a very norm reaction to any injection.

Yes this is normal after a vaccination. It's normal for it to happen and it's just as normal for it not to happen.

@OhDino.. I had this after the 1st and 2nd. It should go after 2 days so maybe speak to your gp esp if painkillers not helping. Good luck
