Pain in arm after: In sticking in the needle the person who did it possibly damaged some underlying structures or caused some blood to leak and the leak, even though small, may be compressing some underlying structures. If you do need further draws soon, tell the person to draw it on the other side or from a different site. And talk to your doc about it today!
