COVID-19 resulted in a worldwide pandemic and the rapid introduction of vaccines in an attempt to mitigate it. Neuritis and neuropathy after intramuscular injection had been previously seen with influenza vaccines and appear to be a side effect of the COVID-19 vaccine as well. In the following report, we present the case of a 43-year-old female who developed axillary nerve symptoms after administration of the COVID-19 vaccine and her subsequent recovery.
Keywords: axillary nerve injury; covid 19; covid-19 vaccine complication; deltoid muscle; trauma and orthopedics.
