Free text: A few hives on lower arms days 5 to 9 after shot. Hive-like blotch near injection shot started day 9. It's larger today, slightly itchy and a very faint pink. These few hives do not bother me much at all. I just want to know that i can get my second shot. I read online that the hive-like splotch near injection site is being called "covid arm," is not serious, and will not mean I can't get a second shot. I very much want to get it. Can you advise?

Each entry is dated by the survey it was written in (the CDC re-sent the releases with survey dates in 2025); click a date to see that survey response. The CDC cut some text off at about 250 characters: symptoms in every release, and the other two fields in releases 9-12. Those entries are marked "cut off by CDC".
