SIRVA: Shoulder Injury Related to Vaccine Administration (IAOM-US)

[@meganw6007]

Thanks for sharing this. I'm currently trying to make sense of the pain in my own shoulder from a flu vaccine being administered way too high, and have been trying to learn more about SIRVA and what physical therapy exercises there are for it that are safe that won't exacerbate the pain or inflammation or anything, and I happened upon this video. Lots of good information contained. Thank you for putting this presentation up.

My problem isn't loss of range of motion, it's just that it hurts like hell to move the joint.

[@Zeckenbisss]

Would u also take the 6th booster shot? Listen,better Smoke a joint cuz needles Will make you sick,be Nice To your own body and not to Bill gayts

[@ariapopz]

same here. been two months now

[@mth469]

well that is pretty much a loss of range of motion. because the pain will make you avoid that range of motion.

[@Aarde2]

hey whats yalls update on your arm i h am vaccinated two months ago and y arm is stiff and tired

[@glenbard657]

I got the Shingrix vaccine in April. The nurse asked which side I wanted injected and I said my left shoulder. She didn't a great job and I hardly felt anything. I got the second dose on June 21st. This time I had a different nurse. She didn't ask where I wanted it and didn't take her time picking an injection site. This is the first time I recall saying "ouch" out loud from a shot and I instantly knew something was wrong. Here it is August 3rd and I still have constant pain in my right shoulder where the second injection was done and it seems to be getting worse. What really pisses me off beside the pain and suffering is that the clinic is going to make more money trying to fix the mistake caused by their incompetence.

[@wepzuk6073]

Similar story for me. Second vaccine was done much higher and deeper than the first.

[@spencehorner8212]

1.5 years since vaccine and my arm and shoulder pain has only gotten worse. Sure would like to know what would provide some relief.

[@2lioncobra]

My husband is in the same boat. I'm pushing him to get help because this isn't going away after more than a year. He said that exercising a lot with his arms helps, but it doesn't solve the problem.

[@cihanaydemir5895]

What do you think of getting a booster shot for people who had suffered from SIRVA after their second shot? It's been 8 months for me and my shoulder has just started to recover. I still have some pain of I lay on that side for a long time, otherwise fine. I'm skeptical about getting a booster shot after having this condition for several months.

[@IamTrayceMadre]

Im in the same position and im extremely concerned. My should has been frozen for going on seven months.

[@jonatasgomesalves]

I had the 1st covid shot on July 8 and been having the same issues as you guys describe here. The 2nd dose I asked to have not on any arm as I was scared to compromise the other shoulder so they applied it in the thigh. Still today not recovered. I just found out this video now I can at least look for the right treatment, hopefully that exists.

[@rory12349]

@@jonatasgomesalves has your symptoms gone? Fingers crossed

[@jonatasgomesalves]

@@rory12349 Thankfully I started feeling some improvements 45 days ago. The pain when trying to lift the arm is 80% gone, it only hits when the arm is almost vertical. Off course I have a lot to do in order to recover the strength back to lift the arm. Around 15 months without being able to go higher than 45 degrees made my muscles weak, I guess.

[@dacmiller]

I got the 2nd Pfizer vaccine at end of May and several weeks later a deep/dull/constant pain deep at the injection site continues to this day, over 3 months. It is too painful to lift that arm up above my head, at least for more than a few seconds and I have lost range of motion overall due to the pain which now feels like it has spread out around my shoulder. I met with a orthopedic surgeon last week and the x-rays show no issues...going to PT this month and then MRI to follow. The doctor said I am not the first to come to him about this and I need to do the PT ahead of MRI for insurance purposes so I must wait. This is a pain deep into my shoulder muscle that won't go away. I cannot live the rest of my life with this and I hope there are solutions.

I got the same problem and its been 3 months as well since the 2nd dose of Pfizer. This pain has not gone away. It manifests itself when I move my arms to certain positions / angles up above. A dull pain that persists.

[@anastasiyak1957]

Hi....I also have the same issue🥺🥺🥺 I have pain in the exact site of injection....sometimes it feels like burning sensation, sometimes feels like pulling pain and dull pain. I got my second Pfizer jab on September 22 ND, 2021......this weird pain started on the third day and lasted for two weeks. I contacted my doctor and told her about this issue. She sent me for ultrasound and also nerve scan ( I had an appointment scheduled with the neurologist regarding my neck issue , and asked to perform nerve scan on my right arm, where got injected) ....both ultrasound and nerve scan were normal. After 3-4 weeks the pain was gone, so I got relaxed and happy about it. But about 6 days ago, pain has returned and it's more intense, sometimes I cant hold a vacuum cleaner for more than 2 minutes ( I am right handed) 🥺🥺🥺 Drives me crazy and I don't know what to do. I put salonpass patches, but doesn't help.

[@simcard2732]

Does this happen to same hand on which you have taken vaccine? I took on LEFT hand and 10 days later I started noticing pain in my RIGHT hand(bicep was swollen) 1month later pain started in neck and shoulder

[@IAOMUSVIDEO]

Yes, it it is happening on the same shoulder where the vaccine was administered. Now, it has been shown through research that upper quarter dysfunctions tend to be mirrored in the contralateral side. Maybe this is what is happening to your shoulder? Have to been seen by a Certified Physical Therapy?

[@Ama40401]

I’d rather get Covid than a debilitating and painful shoulder for over a year. How about you?

[@richiegreen123]

you get that right call us this friday or anytime from 9 to 8pm. west cvoast time. we all got screwed thanks to cdc not once mentioning Sirva. we need 100 volunteers. If everyone thought like you, the fake ccip program would be dead 90 per cent of people who work for ccip a govt fake program never herard of Sirva. call the national sirva hotline. i need 100 sharp sirva volunteers. men get it as much as women. shows Yolu doctors are liars too.

[@maxrajan1177]

Do you suggest any exercises can we do at home

[@IAOMUSVIDEO]

It depends on the type of injury and the structures being affected. In general, controlled and gentle rhythmic mobility of the shoulder and shoulder blade should alleviate the symptoms (try to keep it under 90 deg of elevation).

[@microbiologeest]

I hope mine resolves with analgesics. I don't think physical therapy is free nor cheap in our country.

[@eliass.4328]

I think I am unfortunately affected by it after my 3rd vaccination against Covid. Which specialist should I contact?

[@IAOMUSVIDEO]

Have you tried a Physical therapist?

I have had severe and chronic issue with this within 24 hours of getting my first exclamation for Covid my left shoulder hurts from my neck down to the top of my breast the entire back left side and often clear down past me although sometimes so severe I’m waking up crying in the night it has not stopped sometimes lessons but in most days it’s severe if I bump the arm or do something too quickly or my pet bashes in to me I almost scream in pain because it is that severe who do I talk to other specialists that would be more likely to be able to work with us or help me because I am absolutely desperate

[@IAOMUSVIDEO]

Any chance to get in contact with a Physical Therapist? Highly recommended an IAOM-US Certified PT/OT

[@GenXgirl969]

My arm is completely broken. My injury is debilitating and the pain constant & severe. I also have numbness in my toes and pinky finger all over body swelling particularity in my feet and lower legs. Frequent headaches and vision loss. I had NONE of these issues before the covid vaccine that I got on 4/2020- 1 dose only.

[@IAOMUSVIDEO]

Sorry to read this. Have you gone to a specialist and rule out some other severe/complex causes of such symptoms?

[@richiegreen123]

YOUR SITUATION IS QUITE TYPICAL THE SHOULDER IS TRYING TO CONNECT TO THE BRAIN BUT THE SIGNALS ARE NOT WORKING HENCE THE PAIN. THERE IS NOONE WHO ISA sIRVA EXPERT.

[@lunatremolsaries8027]

The same than me , 4 months and still pain , visited doctor and only pain. Killer , now I m going to visit hospital 🏥 get my MRI

[@BritteLowtherTRAILS]

No pain, but I have a sharp indentation to my left deltoid muscle, notable approximately 6 months after the 2nd COVID vaccination (no vaccinations received received prior to occurrence). The indentation is not just something I notice. Several people have pointed it out. I just got my 3rd shot (booster) and will continue to get vaccinated. I wonder if others have experienced this indentation phenomenon several months following administration of COVID vaccine or any vaccine received to the deltoid.

[@IAOMUSVIDEO]

Britte, have you seen by a PT? Different muscle and joint issues could be taking place at this point. Let us know how to help you out seeking for a solution.

[@dacmiller]

Over 3 months for me ...deep/dull pain started from the 2nd pfizer injection site but it started deep into the muscle. Still no relief but hoping to find answers as I have met with one orthopedic surgeon and doing PT as well.

[@mth469]

3 months Pfizer and there is still pain when i move my arm to certain angles (elevations). A dull pain that does not go away emanating from the injection site and radiating through the arm muscle. I think the forceful injection the nurse gave me where she plunged the needle in like she was stabbing something damaged a nerve in my arm or something. Either that or my immune system did not like the vaccine and wrecked havoc at the point of injection.
