Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
i got a flu shot last tuesday and 3 days later i got sick. also during this time i lifted my sons motor cycle that had fallen over and noticed the day after that the muscle next to my pant line in swollen and my under arm is sore and swollen . both are on my left side. not sure if the sweeling has came from shot or lifting ? help! im worried
The symptoms are more related to an overuse due to lifting the motor cycle. I suggest using a muscle relaxant such as Baclofen three times a day. I also suggest using magnesium supplement for muscle relaxation.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
