What Causes Arm Pain Even After 4 Days Of Anti Tetanus Shot?
I was injected by anti-tetanus serum last 4 days in my arms. I can feel the pain even now. My question is, is the pain in my arms normal to a person injected w/ this vaccine? I was injected in my left and right arm. My right arm is ok but the other is not. I can t raise my hands because its very painful. Please advise me if what to do. thanks a lot!

Hello,
Your symptoms seem to be related to the injection and are completely normal. I suggest using anti-inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen to relieve the pain. I also suggest using cold compresses for local application.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
