A 52-year-old male patient received BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), via an unspecified route of administration, administered in the left arm, on 23Apr2021 (lot number: EN0170), as 2nd dose, single dose, at age 52 years old, for COVID-19 immunisation, at a pharmacy/drug store. Medical history and concomitant medications were not reported. Historical vaccine included the first dose BNT162B2 (PFIZER BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE), administered in the left arm, on 24Mar2021 (lot number: EP6955), at age 52 years old, for COVID-19 immunisation. The patient did not have prior vaccinations within four weeks of BNT162B2. On 23Apr2021, the patient received his second dose of BNT162B2. On 23Apr2021 at 19:30, the patient experienced injection pain/injection site extreme pain. The patient did not act on it because he knew the injection site may be sore for a week. On 24Apr2021, the injection site was hurting bad but again he did not act on it because he knew it may sore but it had been a whole month and it was concerning. The reporter stated that the pain was causing the patient's blood pressure to be elevated. The reporter noticed the blood pressure elevation about 2 weeks after the second injection in the morning time (May2021). The patient also experienced headache at the same time as when the patient's blood pressure was elevated around the morning time, about 2 weeks after the second injection (May2021). It was reported that the pain was so bad that the patient could not sleep at night within a week of the second injection (Apr2021), time of onset was reported as "around 15:00 or 16:00 and as it goes over to the night 190:0 or 20:00, sometimes he is not going to sleep until 02:00 the next morning"). The events required physician's office visit on an unspecified date (reported as "the other day") and the reporter brought the events to the doctor's attention and stated that the patient was in pain throughout the day. The reporter was thinking of taking the patient to urgent care. Treatment for the event "injection pain/injection site extreme pain" and "pain" included heating pads, ice packs, lidocaine patches, unspecified cream and rubbing lotion to try and ease the pain. The reporter was thinking about Advil and asked every how many hours should the patient take the Advil. The outcome of the events was not recovered. Follow-up attempts are needed. Further information is expected.
