Has anyone had the whooping cough vaccine and have a sore armpit the day after??
The injection site doesn't hurt, just my armpit 😂

Hi! Congrats on your pregnancy and yes I have had the whooping cough vaccine but I can’t say that my armpit hurt😂

@CandyFloss9988
Thank you!😌
It's so weird 😅 I'm assuming it's my bodies reaction to it but it's bloody sore 🤣

I haven't got my whooping cough vaccine yet, but I've got that reaction with my flu vaccine and with the three dosis of covid vaccine. Nothing to worry about.

I’ve not had mine yet but is there not a lymph node in your armpit? They swell up or hurt sometimes as an immune response (I’m not a medical expert but something like that?)

No but I've had it in response to other vaccines, it's just your immune system/lymph nodes reacting I believe Smile
