A member asked:
Had an iv placed in my arm and pain meds were given in the er a week ago and my injection site is not sore, but instead my bicep up to my armpit is so?

Exam needed: I recommend that your physician or a vascular surgeon exam your upper arm to check for phlebitis which can occur after an iv insertion. Occasionally medications given through the iv cause irritation of the vein which is less serious.
