Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Pain and swelling will be there after vaccination. So few patients may develop myalgia, fever, arthralgia, etc. Use cold and warm compression, use tablet Paracetamol thrice a day for five days. If you're symptoms not improving or aggravating every day means you have to consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly. Take care.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
