What Could Severe Pain In Arm After Being In A Cast Upto Elbow For Broken Wrist Mean?

I broke my wrist and possibly my arm as that was where all the pain was coming from. The xray was only taken of my wrist not my arm. I am having a lot of pain up my arm. They put a cast on up to my elbow but I am having a lot of pain up my arm still. Should I go see a Dr.

Hi,

I have studied your case with diligence
You may need X ray of arm to rule out any minor fracture.

Do ice application, and thrombhophobe ointment may help and give rest to arm
You can apply crepe bandage for support.

You can consult your doctor by taking appointment.

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
