Let’s walk you through what SIRVA is, how compensation works, and how we build strong cases that get paid—without any legal fees out of your pocket.

What SIRVA from a flu shot really means

Shoulder Injury Related to Vaccine Administration (SIRVA) is shoulder pain and limited range of motion caused by a shot placed too high or too deep into the shoulder. It’s not the vaccine’s ingredients. It’s the injection technique. SIRVA can inflame the bursa, tendons, or joint capsule, leading to bursitis, tendonitis, adhesive capsulitis, or rotator cuff problems. Symptoms usually start within 48 hours. If your pain lingered well past the normal soreness window, you may have a SIRVA claim in the Vaccine Court. We build these cases with medical records, timelines, and expert opinions so your story stands on solid ground.

Our $80,000 result and what it means for you

A recent case shows what careful work can do: we secured $80,000 for a client with flu shot SIRVA. That result reflects months of documented pain, treatment, and loss of function. Every case is unique. Severity, duration, treatment type, and life impact drive outcomes. What matters is proving the link: healthy shoulder before the shot, rapid onset after, and consistent medical documentation. We know how to lay that out so it’s clear, factual, and persuasive.

SIRVA symptoms after a flu shot: signs you shouldn’t ignore

• Shoulder pain starting within 0 to 48 hours after the shot
• Limited range of motion, stiffness, or frozen shoulder
• Pain with overhead reach, dressing, or lifting
• Night pain that disrupts sleep
• Weakness without numbness in hand or fingers
• Pain unchanged or worse beyond 72 hours

If this sounds like you, get evaluated. Ask your provider to note the vaccine date, injection site, onset timing, and your prior shoulder history. Those details are gold in a VICP claim.

How the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP) pays SIRVA claims

The VICP is a federal program that compensates people hurt by covered vaccines. Flu shots are covered. SIRVA is listed on the Vaccine Injury Table when symptoms start within 48 hours and there’s no prior shoulder pathology. The program pays for pain and suffering, unreimbursed medical costs, and lost earnings. You don’t sue your doctor or pharmacy. You file a petition in the Vaccine Court with medical proof. We handle the filings, expert reports, deadlines, and hearings.

Flu shot SIRVA case timeline and what to expect

Most cases follow a rhythm. First, we gather your records. Then we file your petition with a detailed affidavit and expert support if needed. The government reviews your case. We answer questions, attend status conferences, and negotiate. Many SIRVA cases settle. If not, we present evidence to a special master. Throughout, we aim to show consistent symptoms, appropriate treatment, and real impact on your life.

Brooklyn-based, nationwide reach for SIRVA claims

We’re rooted in Brooklyn, New York, and we work with clients across the country. Whether you got your shot at a pharmacy in Bay Ridge, a clinic in the Bronx, or a grocery store in Phoenix, we can help. We know how local medical systems chart vaccinations, and we use that to your advantage. We’ll coordinate with your orthopedist, physical therapist, or pain management practice to ensure the record is complete.

The proof your SIRVA case needs

• Vaccine record with date, vaccine type (influenza), and site (left or right deltoid)
• Early medical notes documenting onset within 48 hours
• Prior shoulder history showing no pre-existing pathology
• Imaging (ultrasound or MRI) if available, especially for bursitis or rotator cuff issues
• Physical therapy notes showing range-of-motion limits over time
• Work notes, disability forms, or accommodations indicating functional impact
• A clear personal timeline that connects the dots

Treatment paths that often appear in SIRVA files

• Rest, NSAIDs, and heat/ice in the early stage
• Physical therapy focusing on range of motion and capsular stretching
• Corticosteroid injection into the subacromial space or glenohumeral joint
• Oral steroids for acute inflammation in select cases
• Hydrodilatation for adhesive capsulitis
• Arthroscopic procedures in resistant cases
• Home exercise programs and sleep positioning adjustments

We don’t provide medical care, but we read these records daily and know how to present them effectively to the Vaccine Court.

Common causes: why SIRVA happens after a flu shot

SIRVA stems from poor injection placement or needle depth, not the flu vaccine formula. A high shot can enter the bursa. A deep shot can irritate the joint capsule or rotator cuff. Petite body frames or long needles raise risk. Rushed clinics increase technique errors. Your pain is real and has a mechanical cause. That’s why timing and exam findings matter so much.

How we secured $80,000 in a flu shot SIRVA case

Our client reported immediate shoulder pain after a pharmacy flu shot. Urgent care notes within 24 hours documented reduced abduction and tenderness. Physical therapy records showed slow progress. A targeted steroid injection improved pain but not fully. Work limits were documented by the employer. We presented a tight timeline, consistent clinical findings, and a clear narrative of daily-life impact. That case settled for $80,000, reflecting pain, suffering, and expenses.

What affects SIRVA compensation in Vaccine Court

• Onset timing: sooner is stronger
• Duration: months to years of symptoms
• Treatment intensity: PT, injections, procedures
• Objective findings: ROM deficits, imaging support
• Work and life impact: activities you can’t do
• Credibility: consistent records and testimony

No two shoulders are alike, and no two settlements are identical. Our job is to push your case to its full fair value.

Deadlines: don’t wait to get help

The VICP filing deadline is generally three years from the first symptom. Don’t sit on it. The sooner we gather your records, the stronger your case. Pharmacy vaccine logs, intake forms, and early clinic notes can be lost over time. We move quickly to lock down proof.

Table: Key SIRVA facts at a glance

Statistics and facts you should know

• Influenza vaccines are the most commonly compensated vaccine in VICP each year, driven largely by SIRVA petitions.
• SIRVA became a Vaccine Injury Table condition for flu shots due to consistent evidence that injection technique can inflame shoulder structures.
• Many compensated SIRVA claims show first medical visit within a few days of vaccination and steady documentation over several months.
• Most SIRVA cases resolve without trial, but preparation as if for trial improves settlement outcomes.

Your first steps today

• Write down your timeline: vaccine date, when pain started, first doctor visit.
• Request records: pharmacy vaccine administration record, urgent care/PCP notes, PT notes.
• Track daily impact: sleep disruption, missed work, tasks you can’t perform.
