Local precautions at the site of the jab *After the injection, keep the area clean and apply a clean, cool, wet washcloth over the area. *Move and exercise the arm. *For those on blood thinners, gentle pressure will help to minimise bruising. *If there is persistent pain, you may take paracetamol or ibuprofen unless contradicted by your physician. *The pain and swelling will go away in a few days but if in doubt Book Appointment with me on Practo. *Generalised mild reactions may feel like flu and may even affect your ability to do daily activities but will disappear in a few days. *These side-effects are a result of the inflammation that is happening within your body. Your body reacts to the vaccine and is working to fight off the simulated infection. These symptoms show that your body is building a healthy immune response.
