On December 3, 2024 I received a tetanus vaccination where the needle was inserted too high on my shoulder and was later diagnosed to have hit my bursa sac. I thought the technician was prepping an injection location too high on my shoulder but didn't say anything. The vaccination itself was uneventful but within 2 days. I had near constant pain in the L shoulder around the injection site. Icing and Advil/Alleve did not resolve the issue. I met with Nurse Practitioner on December 10, and she referred me to Dr. who I saw on December 17. He gave me ultrasound and suggested a cortisone shot but I declined on the grounds that I did not want anymore needles in my shoulder. He referred me to another Dr for further treatment. I saw Dr. on December 18. He used ultrasound to diagnos bursitis and suggested a cortisone shot. I declined the shot. He prescribed Meloxicam (Mobic) which I took for almost 3 weeks as the pain symptoms subsided. After about 6 weeks I felt my left shoulder had been relieved of pain and was back to normal.
