Symptom narrative

I received the Prevnar 20 vaccine on April 30, 2025. The following day my arm began to be red and itchy around the injection site. The redness area and itchiness increased for 5 days, then began to subside. It was at its largest on May 5, and measured approximately 5 inches in length and 3 inches in width on that day and itched a lot. The reaction slowly subsided over the following week and was completely gone by two weeks.
