A member asked:

Occasionally, i have a stabbing pain in my wrist when i cough or sneeze. should i be worried?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

If persistent : Persistent pain in the wrist or arm on coughing or sneezing be indicative of a pinched nerve in the neck. A good history and exam by your family physician may find the cause and recommend management.
