Persistent pain in arm after tetanus shot

So my daughter (8) had a tetanus shot in November and ever since then complains about a painful arm. I get that it can hurt for a while afterwards but 5 months??? Doctor is dismissing it of course....

I remember pain for months after from the BCG injection but not s tetanus. Are you able to contact the manufacturer to ask about any side effect? You could find out from the surgery which one they used. Sometimes they put the batch number on the record card in your child health book.

It wasn't done here. Doctor pretty much fobbed us off. Of course. Googling around revealed that not much can be done anyway. I mean, they are not going to cut the burning muscle out, are they.

Will try biofeedback next week and see how that goes.....
