Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
It s going on about 7 years now since I had Metal plates put on each bone in my lower Arm. Now right above the wrist is starting to swell where my scar is, also a inner tingling feeling happens when I use my hand. Is this something I should get checked out or just take some pain reliever and continue on about my days?
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, looking to the symptoms given here it is better to see the doctor because it could be some infection or something wrong with prosthesis, till then you can try NSAID (Tab Diclofenac 50 mg once in day) hope this information helps.
