I looked on the internet to see what side effects I could find. I saw information about "Covid Arm," and I'm sure this is what I experienced. I followed the advice I saw about Covid Arm. I used a hydrocortizone cream on the rash until it cleared up about March 1. I took Claritin for a couple of days to help with the itching. I took a photo on February 19. When I returned to get my second injection, I asked the nurse to give me the vaccine in my right arm. I am hopeful I won't develop the rash on this arm, but time will tell.
