Symptom narrative

Pt called to explain that her right arm, the one the COVID shot was in, is bruised and achy. Some limited ROM, can raise above shoulder but not above head. Had previous shot years ago given by a pharmacist that was in her bursa, this "does not feel like that". She has taken ibuprofen with some relief. Encouraged her to keep me informed of the evolution of this event. No complaints on L arm where Flu was. Did explain that we sometimes see inflammation with the COVID shot, but to follow up with PCP as needed and that I would file this report.

Prior vaccinations

Flu vaccine injected into bursa at a pharmacy
