Question 1

blood clot in wrist after iv anesthesia. how do you treat this?

Accepted Answer

Any symptoms?: Do you have redness, swelling, pain, discharge at the IV site? If not merely keep an eye on it and your body will do the rest to naturally dissolve it. If you have the above symptoms, see your doctor for evaluation.

Question 2

if you break a bone in your wrist can it cause a blood clot?

Accepted Answer

Unlikely: If you are still up and about, wrist fracture will not increase your risk for a blood clot.

Question 3

small lump left side of left wrist.  it doesn't hurt but is hard. is it a blood clot? ? help!

Accepted Answer

Probable ganglion: It sound like you have a ganglion cyst.  It is usually not anything to worry about unless it is growing rapidly or causing pain.

Question 4

i have pain in my forearm just above recent wrist iv site.  feels like a knot.  could this be a blood clot that i should be concerned about?

Accepted Answer

Probably nothing : To worry about but certainly could be a thrombosis of the small vein that the IV was in.  This may be sore for a while but causes no problems.  Warm compresses help.

Question 5

my right hand/wrist has been extremely painful. then it swelled up.  now my hand is turning black and blue all over.  could i have a blood clot?

Accepted Answer

ER evaluation: Appears to be related to blood flow. Recommend an immediate er visit.

Question 6

can a blood clot on the hand close to the wrist area look like a lump and if it is a blood clot could it be dangerous?

Accepted Answer

Unlikely: It would be unlikely for a blood clot to show up as a cystic area.  More likely a ganglionic cyst in the wrist area.  Get eval to get the real and definitive diagnosis.  Best wishes.

Question 7

random chest pain for about 3 days now.  random shoulder and wrist pain. went to er, everything was normal. could it be a blood clot?

Accepted Answer

Tachycardia: If you have a blood clot, your exam will not be normal --.

Question 8

my right forearm feels very tight when i move my hand around and bend the wrist. is this a sign of a blood clot?

Accepted Answer

Merits evaluation.: Any trauma to the arm, whether mild or severe, can cause the muscles or blood vessels to display consequences: muscle strain or tear, bleeding  and blood clots to name a few.  A careful examination  by a qualified doctor should result in the correct diagnosis and therapy.

Question 9

i got kicked in wrist during martial arts. 2nd day tiny bruise formed. 3rd day, red area on whole wrist. burning pain, comes and goes. blood clot??

Accepted Answer

Less likely: More likely a bruise/hematoma from a sprain. If more concern an X ray will be helpful if a bone fracture is present.  Good luck

Question 10

i'm  having pain in my rt wrist,hand, and arm  past few months.2 days ago found bruise on rt wrist and didn't hit it or anything.can it be blood clot?

Accepted Answer

Blood clot: These are not the signs of a blood clot in the upper extremity. If the clot is in a vein the arm and hand would be swollen and purple. IF in an artery, the hand would be cold and pale. IT'S possible that you're having carpal tunnel syndrome. An orthopedic or hand surgeon could evaluate you.
