Symptom narrative

After receiving the vaccination patient developed swelling, redness and warmth to her left upper extremity. This continued to worsen over 1 to 2 days. It did not seem to improve and then worsened again and is spreading towards the inner arm. She presented to my clinic and it appeared she had a vaccine reaction and then developed a superimposed cellulitis. Point-of-care ultrasound demonstrated cobble stoning consistent with cellulitis. She was treated with BActim.
