Covid vaccine arm pain

[19annie86]

I have read that some people got arm pain up to a week after getting vaccine, had anyone had this and the pain started a week after you got the vaccine

It's fairly normal with Moderna. Mine came on 1-2 days afterwards and lasted 7 days but everything I've read said 5-8 days after the injection was normal too.

I got the Pfizer vaccine

I had AZ and had arm pain for several days post jab. Only fir the first one and it came on immediately. Second jab no issues.

I had the Pfizer on Friday and my arm pain started within a few hours but is pretty much gone now, unless I poke it really hard

Nope. First vaccine was 48 hour arm ache. I had my second on Friday and didn’t notice it after yesterday afternoon 😊

I had arm pain for the first few days after Moderna, then it went away then came back a couple of weeks later and lasted for weeks.

Arm pain at an injection site is very common after any vaccination, so try not to worry. If it doesn't go away soon, or it's impacting on your ability to do activities, you could give your GP a ring and see what they suggest for analgesia.
