Clinical narrative: swollen lymph node in the neck; swollen face and throat; swollen face and throat; arm pain; throat irritation; tightness around the top of his head; This is a spontaneous report from a contactable consumer. This contactable consumer (patient) reported himself that a 67-year-old male patient received first dose of bnt162b2 (Pfizer-Biontech COVID-19 Vaccine, solution for injection, batch/lot number: EN6201), via an unspecified route of administration on 19Feb2021 14:00 on left arm as single dose for COVID-19 immunisation. The patient's medical history included narcolepsy and blood pressure high. Patient's medical history (including any illness at time of vaccination) was none. He got the flu vaccine in Nov1994, and 2 weeks later he got the flu, and it was the worst he has ever had. Concomitant medications were not reported. The patient received second dose of bnt162b2 (Pfizer-Biontech COVID-19 Vaccine, solution for injection, batch/lot number: EP6955) via an unspecified route of administration on 15Mar2021 at 11:30 on left arm as single dose for COVID-19 immunisation. On 07Mar2021, about a week ago, he was outside on his deck and his face was in direct sunlight, and his face started to swell up and was tightening on one side. Where his face was covered nothing happened, but the side of his face that was in the direct sunlight started to swell up and tightened. Stated that his face felt heavy around his lips where it was in the sun. He went inside, and his wife told him he was having an allergic reaction to something and to take Benadryl. He took the Benadryl and splashed ice-cold water on his face, and the swelling went down. On 14Mar2021, that Sunday, he noticed a lymph node on his shoulder by his neck on the same side where he got his vaccine, at the 5th level according to the research he did. States that it's rubbery and movable so he didn't know what it was, but it seemed to be getting larger until yesterday. On 19Feb2021, there was no pain, but he did notice a little swelling around his throat. He has a doctor's appointment on Tuesday to see his primary care doctor. Clarified that his face swelled up and tightened on 07Mar2021. He has not gone back out in direct sunlight since this happened. He only had the face swelling and tightening for that day. Once he went inside and took Benadryl and put ice on his face it went down. Clarified that he noticed the lymph node on 14Mar2021, and it was now persisting. When asked when he first noticed the swelling around his throat, he stated that he has had throat irritation and tightness around the top of his head since the day of the 1st dose which was 19 Feb 2021 at 2PM. He also had arm pain that also started that same day, and went down his arm to the wrist, and up his shoulder to his neck, but the pain only lasted 1.5 days. On the side where the lymph node was, there was some pain in his upper throat when he touches it; when they measure the muscles in the neck, it was that 1st level where the pain was; but the pain was only on the left side. There were none other relevant diagnostic and confirmatory test results for events. The outcome of the event swollen lymph node in the neck was not recovered; swollen face and throat and throat irritation was recovered while outcome of the remaining event was unknown.
