Side effects from hepatitis B vaccines

I had my hepatitis B jab 2 days ago and now I am unable to move my neck and arm without  pain. I was just wondering if this is a side effect and will it go away soon or should I be worried?

Soreness near the site of injection is normal, and should pass within a few days.   I would still call your doctor, or whoever administered the shot.  I correct administration can result in a condition called SIRVA: https://www.verywellhealth.com/shoulder-pain-after-vaccine-injection-sirva-2549798
So, I'd definitely have it looked at, especially if it's getting worse or not subsiding.
