Any Suggestion For Sharp Pain In Arm When Having Metal Plate In Arm?
Hello, As a first line management, you can take analgesics like paracetamol or aceclofenac for pain relief. If symptoms persist better to consult an orthopedician and get evaluated. You might require an X-ray to look whether the implant misplaced or not. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
