I've been having some concerns after getting the Covishield vaccine a few days ago. I've been experiencing chest pain and a feeling of tightness, along with mild difficulty breathing when I'm lying down. There's also a lot of mucus coming from my mouth. It feels like I might have a cold, considering I've had COVID before. Should I be worried about possible chest congestion or could it be something else?

I've been dealing with some chest pain for the past couple of days. It's kind of in the chest area and I've noticed it spreading to my shoulder and back too. The pain isn't super intense, more like a discomfort or small pressure. Also, my body temperature seems to be fluctuating a lot, like I feel hot one moment and cold the next. What could this be?
