Best to evaluate would be your primary cate doctor as a shoulder infection is highly unlikely as a consequence of the vaccine and a thorough evaluation will be needed.

If you now have an infection following a vaccine shot, you should see your local physician ASAP. If you wish an additional opinion from HealthTap, proceed to the pain portion of our site and schedule a virtual consult.
