A member asked:
Recently i've been experiencing short irregular rounds of mild pain in the veins of my left wrist. at times that mild pain comes in one of my fingertips. is there anything to worry about? could it be some kind of minor clotting?

Get an exam: Blood clotting doesn't usually cause the symptoms you're describing - usually there is swelling as well as pain that doesn't go away. Your symptoms sound more like a muscle/soft tissue injury or nerve compression (similar to carpal tunnel syndrome). I'd recommend you see a provider for an exam in order to get the right diagnosis and treatment.
