Arm pain: Pain. This is the Healthtap general site. If you log back in you could connect with a provider who can help. The other choice is to call your surgeon. He or she does not have to see you and typically could get you something for relief. Although simple remember the basics to keep you wrist elevated when at rest and cool compress usually is of benefit.
