Symptom narrative

Site: Pain at Injection Site-Medium, Site: Redness at Injection Site-Mild, Site: Swelling at Injection Site-Mild, Additional Details: Patient was given Shingrix on 8/4/25. She came back to the pharmacy one week later showing us that her arm is still sore, warm to the touch, and swollen. Based off of where the swollen area was, I can determine that it was in the middle of the deltoid (the intended injection site). I told her to continue to take NSAIDs, ice it and do proper stretches to help it feel better. I advised her to go to her PCP if any effects worsen. I continue to call her every Monday to check up on her.
