What Causes Diarrhea And Joint Pain After A Pneumonia Shot?
Brief Answer:
Hello. This is a known side effect of the shot
Detailed Answer:
Hello. Your symptoms sound very much like a typical side effect of the vaccination, but since this has been going on for so long you probably have developed a bacterial enteritis.
You need plenty of electrolyte rich fluids like juices and GatorAde but unless this resolves in another two days you need to see your doctor for stool cultures and antibiotics.
Please let me know if you need any more information
