A member asked:
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?
A doctor has provided 1 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.
