Ramsay Hunt Syndrome after vaccination

I am a 26-year-old girl. I suspect got ramsay hunt syndrome as side effect after 2nd dose Sinovac vaccination. Right side of my face feels numb and right eye cannot close completely and right side of mouth is tilted. Right ear also got reddish like pimple. Is this normal side effect after vaccination? Any home remedies or medication can help?

Hello, thank you for reaching out to us.

For your information, numbness of face with deviated mouth angle and inability to close one eye is quite worrisome as it can be due to a neurological defect. This is not a normal side effect of a vaccine.

We advise you to seek medical attention as soon as possible to rule out any serious medical issues. You may contact our doctor online for a private consultation regarding your condition.

Thank you.
