It felt like its inflamed a bit but it did not look swollen, neck doesn't look swollen, but arm was extremely sore, extremely sensitive above the elbow, eyes are also tired. Spikevax blew up my lymphatic system. It was an earie feeling, why mentally brain even wanted to go swimming even with no energy.
