Symptom narrative

When given the vaccine it felt like it went right into my bone. It was very painful and I could feel the sensation of the medicine going in. I knew something wasn't right immediately and even said something to the person who gave it. It was very different from any vaccine I have received. My arm was sore for the next couple days, which is pretty typical. Pain in my left shoulder continued for the next couple of months and my range of motion has been limited along with pain when performing daily activities and exercise.

Lab data

I reached out to my doctor on December 16, 2025. I explained my symptoms and he sent me to PT. He explained that this was the result of my flu vaccine being given in the wrong spot, causing frozen shoulder. I am receiving PT 3 times a week.
