Should I Be Concerned After Heart Fluttering Feeling, Swollen And Achy Hands After Inserting Picc Line?
Had a picc line inserted this morning and a now I have felt my heart flutter a few times..not bad but uncomfortable. Also when I remove my ring off my finger it was hard to remove like the Hans was slightly swollen. I just got it today so it s still achy but not more. And it looks ok. Should I be concerned?
Yes sir, the line will be very delicate for infection so you need to take extracare for it. Secondly you might need complete examination of cardiovascular system
Thanks
