Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic

There is generally no need to treat the hand, arm pit and so on, separately.
That is referred pain and when the heart is taken care of, these things too will settle down.

The rate and pressure could be a part of the picture of the attack / or reaction to it.
Being in intensive care, he must be under monitoring and proper care

It is a question of time and things settle down...

Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
