If your side effects are causing you discomfort, there are things you can do to alleviate them.
“You can take painkillers, such as paracetamol, if you need to,” advises the NHS.
As the health body points out, you may get a high temperature or feel hot or shivery one or two days after having your vaccination.
“But if you have a high temperature that lasts longer than two days, a new, continuous cough or a loss or change to your sense of smell or taste you may have COVID-19. Stay at home and get a test.”
