Does Shingrix Vaccine Cause Any Side Effects Such As Shoulder Pain And Weakness?

I got the first shingrix vaccination June 21 2018. I had side effects from that. The injection site has been sore off and on since the shot. Even have had shoulder pain. It feels like a sore band around the top,of my arm. Im afraid to get the 2 nd shot dur 12-21. What do you think? And second question I have a burning pain in groin area on right leg. I had a hernia repair there about 10 yr. ago. Could it be the mesh? This is very painful and stops be when it strikes, which is often now.

Hello,

The symptoms seem to be related to the injection.

I suggest using cold compresses at the are of the injection.

I also suggest using anti-inflammatory medication such as Ibuprofen.
