On an unspecified date, after the second dose of vaccination patient developed a lump, first lump was located on the left side of the clavicle area and the other lump grows on the other side of the clavicle. Primary care physician was very concerned about the size of the lump and requested her to have CT scan and ultrasound. She mentioned that her doctor was sure that it was not a lymph node. She was also referred to a dermatologist and suggested to remove the lump. She was in pain as she cannot turn her neck sideways. Patient has a lump on her left shoulder on her neck. She visited a dermatologist and had a CT scan and an Ultrasound. There was no abscess or nothing that showed up. She googled the lump and the internet does say the lump will go away but it was still there and she was in a lot of pain. She visited all kinds of doctors and asked for compensation from government to help pay for her doctor's bills. She was very concerned over this lump. On 26Jul2021, she visited her orthopedic surgeon and he told her the lump looks bigger than the last time he saw her and now she was getting another lump that's forming in the same spot but on her right side near her collar bone. The lump on the right showed up about 2 weeks ago. The lump on the left she got after she received her second dose of the Pfizer Covid 19 vaccine. The dermatologist told her to wait 6 weeks to see if the lump will go away.
