Can the moderna covid vaccine raise your bp for a few days after the second injection?

Both the Pfizer and the Moderna vaccine have shown some lymphatic inflammation causing extremity swelling, enlarged lymph nodes and increased BP after the second vaccination. The symptoms usually go away after a few weeks. Talk to your Dr if they persist.
