For Tetanus Prophylaxis "4 days after getting the shot in my right arm, I developed severe joint and and muscle pain in my left arm. 2 weeks later it spread to my hips and then my lower back. Now, 3 months later, the pain is primarily in my left elbow. While it has lessened somewhat , doing the simplest of tasks like making the bed, is still painful."

For Tetanus Prophylaxis "5 days after tdap shot in my right arm I woke up with swollen eye lid and stiff neck and limited right arm mobility. The pain increased over days. Stiffness down the arm towards the elbow. Stiffness on the right side from shoulder up neck and down scapula. Alternated using ice and heat on the pain. It’s been 9 days and it's still painful. Managing with ibuprofen- had a fainting feeling this morning but it passed."
