What Causes Back Flow Of Blood In Lower Arm, Palm And Numb Fingers?
Hi doctor. Actually since two weeks i am having a problem with my right arm. When i am at rest i have back flow of blood in my lower arm and my palm and fingers go numb. I have to stand and let the flow going on and it becomes very painful too. I have try muscle relaxant and anti inflamatory but it doesnt seem to work. Please can you advice me.
Hello thank you for writing us here. Your symptoms suggests of ischemia of hand. It could be because of previous injury or because of obstruction in the blood flow to your hand. You should consider going to a doctor and they would inject heparin in your vessels so any embolism if present is drained and also at your own level, drink plenty of water. Whenever you're free, you must go for a checkup to recent further complications. God bless you.
Best regards, Dr Gunjan
