A member asked:

What can i do about the swelling, pain and muscle spasms in my arm from using a pain pump?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Need more info: If it is local swelling and pain, hot compresses amy help. Ibuprofen or another non-steroidal anti inflammatory may help. If there is any redness or pain to touch, you should have your physician look at the site.
