A member asked:
Vascular spasm in radial artery after catheterization is causing pain. what do i do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Aspirin: Try an aspirin if not already on one. May need evaluation by a vascular surgeon to see if the radial artery has thrombosed/clotted. This is a common problem after radial artery access for catheterization.
