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.
As a form of self harm I injected my own blood into myy wrist. The wrist is now swollen and hot to the touch, but no bruise has appeared. Instead there is a sharp pain from my wrist up to my elbow, it's worse when I move my arm. Should I be concerned?
