The COVID-19 vaccines are relatively safe and its adverse affects are usually short term. Reference link https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/vaccines/expect/after.html. The description of symptoms appears to be neuropathic pain, or vascular. Your medical provider can offer alternative treatment options if that medication side effects are intolerable.

This kind of reaction is uncommon but has been seen in others, but often departs over a few months. Talk to your doctor about a tolerated medication
