Symptom narrative

3 hours after my vaccine was administered, I began with arm pain, swelling, redness, severe headache, and body aches. I spent the ext 48 hours in bed with the above symptoms. Tylenol and Advil were taken every 4 hours alternating the two OTC medications. By day 3, I feel 95% better but my arm is still red and sore. I did not have these symptoms after my first dose of the medication in September 2025. I did not contact any medical person regarding this experience just hoping it would get better which it did.
