Abstract

Parsonage Turner Syndrome (PTS) presents with sudden onset arm pain followed by motor weakness and can be associated with surgery, infection, or vaccination. This case discusses an incidence of PTS following COVID-19 vaccination where symptoms resolved on their own progressively and extensive investigations ruled out cerebrovascular accident or vascular aetiology, and diagnosis of PTS was made. Incidence of such adverse effects is rare and awareness among clinical community can lead to recognition and prompt management of such cases.
