Frozen should and the Flu Vaccine

Articles by Dr. Erdman are for informational purposes, and are not to be taken as specific medical advice.

Since we are bombarded everyday with false information from the medical monopoly regarding the flu vaccines, I feel it is my duty to expose you to the data no one else will print.

What is the one side effect that every doctor will admit can occur when any vaccine is administered? My first thought was that they will never admit to anything adverse with vaccines, but then this one did come to mind. It’s actually an easy one, soreness at the sight of the injection, right?

For most people it’s as simple as being sore where a needle jabbed you, and it’s gone in a matter of days. But there can be another effect, lasting much longer and possibly leading to a frozen shoulder.

The condition is called (wait for it…) shoulder injury related to vaccine administration, or SIRVA. It has been known to occur for a long time, but the first cases were published in 2007, following influenza and pneumococcal injections.


The incidence of SIRVA has steadily been increasing over the years of being tracked, to a point where it has been proposed that it be added to the vaccine related injury compensation program run by the Feds. That means that even their own research has shown SIRVA is a more common problem than they want to admit.

Most side effects from vaccines come from the poisons in the vaccines themselves. However, SIRVA is unique in that it is caused by where the needle is directed into the tissue. Most vaccines are put into the upper arm, so the shoulder is the most affected area.

The injections are supposed to be put into muscle tissue. If it mistakenly put into the bursa of the shoulder joint or related areas, it can be bad.

Vaccine material in a bursa sac may provide an immune reaction, causing your body to attack the bursa. Severe pain and loss of range of motion can ensue to the point of a completely “frozen shoulder.”

Researchers say the way to most easily avoid this injury is to never use the top third of the deltoid muscle as the injection point. Now consider that you can now get a flu shot at the grocery store, gas station, golf course and who knows where else. When a person chooses a venue other than a doctor’s office to receive the vaccine, how is it done? Do you take your shirt off and expose the full arm like you would generally do in a doctor’s office? In the cold weather most have more clothing on with longer sleeves. Do they then have you grab your shirt by the collar and pull it down over the shoulder? Therein lies the most common etiology of this problem. By not exposing the full deltoid muscle, you leave the executioner only the top of the shoulder muscle to shoot at, and that is exactly where the poisons should not be located.

Even if you don’t care to heed the advice to eschew any and all vacations, at least you can avoid this side effect by simply paying attention when the shot is administered. If it were me, I’d surely make a simple statement to the nurse ahead of time “to avoid the top half of the deltoid muscle.”

Now for a bonus fact that I just came across regarding children who get the flu vaccine. One of the “facts” medicine uses to get you to shoot up your kids is that by getting the flu shot, even if it is not a match to this year’s flu, is that it supposedly lessens the symptoms and makes the flu you still get less severe. I’ve called baloney on that one for a long time. Now, “recent research presented at the 105th International Conference of the Thoracic Society in San Diego revealed that children who get the influenza vaccine are more at risk of hospitalization than children who did not. In fact, children who had received flu shots had three times the risk of hospitalization as children who had not. Among children with asthma, the risk was even higher,” writes Dr. Mercola.


This is simply one more reason to avoid flu vaccines at any age, they are worthless for prevention, and they actually cause harm in those they say they are protecting. You couldn’t make up irony like this if you tried.
