Symptom narrative

Patient described the vaccine injury as looking like a burn and was very painful. Patient's mother attempted to treat the injury with a cold pack, which she reported did not help. Patient and her mother came to the pharmacy to show the pharmacist the injury and to ask for advice. While pulling off the bandaid, it pulled off some of the patient's skin showing an open wound at the site of injection. Pharmacist suggested applying neosporin and gauze to the injury and holding in place with medical tape to help prevent more skin from being pulled off from a regular bandaid. Patient's mother indicated that she would take the patient to an urgent care for further care.
