I just saw that you are an RN. I had to get a tetanus shot b4 I started school. It was at least 5 or 6 weeks ago. My damn shoulder still hurts. I can't even bench press. Have to put a 45 pound plate on my back and do pushups. The shoulder was already injured but the shot made it much worse. Do you know why? and when can I expect it to clear up?

I had that happen with my hep b shot ,it hurt for at least a month. In my case the person who gave the shot hit the bone and bruised it. I'll bet that is what happened with you, they didn't give it in the right part of the muscle. Advil will help. It can last a couple months.
