What Causes Stabbing Pain In Wrist After Blood Being Taken?
I had my bloods taken on monday & had a very sudden, excrutiating shock stabbing down to my inner wrist, however this didn t last long apart from a small tingling. I woke up this morning & the shock has reappeared but only when I try to straighten my arm. Has damage been caused to the nerve? & if so, how long is it likely to last please?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern looking to the given history here I could say that the extreme sharp point of needle may cause the trauma at the site of prick and this may induce the pain some time refer pain too, hope this information helps you, for the symptomatic relief you can take Tab Ibuprofen 400 mg three times in day take care and have a nice day.
