Shoulder Injuries Related to COVID-19 Vaccination
Abstract
Shoulder injury attributable to vaccination (SIRVA) is an adverse event secondary to inoculation. Its most frequent cause has been vaccination against influenza, but the current massive campaign against the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic makes it an injury whose knowledge is of importance for specialists. It includes different structural lesions and has a torpid and prolonged evolution. SIRVAs must be reported to the sanitary control agencies. Their treatment is based on the use of corticosteroids and rehabilitation.Downloads
