What Causes Wrist Pain, Poor Blood Circulation And Bulging Blood Vessels?

My left wrist feels like the blood circulation is being cut off, similar to when I have my blood pressure taken. My blood vessels are bulging slightly and the pain is moving up toward my elbow. My neck and shoulders are tensing and aching and they weren t before the pain in my arm started. Every minute or so my blood vessels. Feel like they are going to burst and it is a sharp pain for about 5to 10 seconds and then it goes back to feeling like I am still in the cuff

Hello,

I have studied your case and reports

Canal stenosis leads to swelling and pain in your wrist and arm.
Vascular occlusion can lead to sharp pain .

For these symptoms analgesic and neurotropic medication can be started.
Till time, avoid lifting weights, Sit with support to back. You can consult physiotherapist for help.
Physiotherapy like ultrasound and interferential therapy will give quick relief.

You may need MRI and doppler to confirm diagnosis.

Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.

Wishing you good health.

Take care.
