Dr. Benjamin Lerner answered

Specializes in Vascular Surgery

Pain: If you have injured your brachial artery, there would be less blood flowing to your hand -- you would notice that it may be cold or painful. There may also be swelling in the area of the injury, a hematoma, where the brachial artery is bleeding.
