Pain in arm after rabies vaccine, what should i do? is it ok just to take painkillers or should i see a doctor?

Pain at injection : Site is a common experience. Keep an eye on the area and if you develop a rash, warmth or swelling have the area examined. Otherwise use ibuprofen and acetaminophen to help with discomfort.
