Hi,
Thanks for writing to Health Care Magic, I am Dr Asad Riaz, I have closely read your question and I understand your concerns, I will hereby guide you regarding your health related problem.
The arm pain that you told about is unrelated to a procedure done through his radial artery as there is no nerve supply over arteries that could cause him to sense pain.
If his pain increases with arm movements especially when raising his arm above his head, it may be due to adhesive capsulitis that is the inflammation of the linig of shoulder joint
For that he may have phydiotherapy, use warm compresses, apply pain killer gels and take some over the counter pain killers like Tablet Naproxen
I hope this answered your question, if you have more feel free to ask.
Regards
Dr.Asad Riaz.
