A member asked:

What pain meds r used for chronic thrombosis for radial artery?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hmmm...: Thrombosis of the radial artery by itself doesn't cause pain, but poor circulation to the hand and fingers as a result can. In those cases pain medicine is not typically enough and you may need to consider reconstructive surgery to the radial artery, most commonly in the form of a bypass. You should see a board certified vascular or hand surgeon to discuss further.
