A member asked:
Would the palm side of the wrist be more vascular dense compared to the "back" side of the wrist?

Yes, all big vessels (arteries and veins) are on the palm side.

I am concerned about why you are asking this question. Many young persons experiencing depression or severe anxiety will use cutting or even attempt suicide involving their wrists. Understand that chemical imbalances can make situations seem unbearable, but can be simply corrected. Please seek counseling at any of the nationally available suicide hotlines. 1 866 APPELLE (1.866.277.3553)
