Having Shoulder Pain After Your Recent Flu Shot?

It is flu season and most people are told, or mandated, to get their flu shot. Many people get their flu shots at local pharmacies since they are often free and easily accessible. We are often told how safe and effective vaccines and, in particular, flu shots, are. However, more and more people are suffering shoulder injuries after their flu shots, but they have no idea why their shoulder pain came about, nor do they think that their recent flu shot could be the culprit. SIRVA, or Shoulder Injury Related to Vaccine Administration, manifests as shoulder pain and eventual limited range of motion occurring as a result of the administration of a vaccine injection. While some degree of discomfort may be expected from any shoulder injection, the improper administration of a vaccine can cause severe, often debilitating, pain, which can lead to complications. Pain lasting longer than a day or two is not associated with the normal side effects of receiving a vaccination. The most common diagnoses associated with SIRVA are brachial plexus, torn rotator cuff, frozen shoulder, adhesive capsulitis, shoulder bursitis, shoulder tendinitis, and shoulder impingement syndrome. Mostly all of these diagnoses, though, simply start with shoulder pain, discomfort, and pain when moving the shoulder. If you or a loved one has experienced prolonged shoulder pain after a recent flu shot or other vaccine, please contact our vaccine attorney who can discuss the prospects of your particular case.
