A member asked:

Radial artery occlusion. ultrasound radiologist says ulnar artery i'd providing good flow. he says pain may be due yo nerve damage. what is treatment.

I'd: See an "ortho hand" specialist. He/she can help determine whether the blocked artery is even causing the pain. You might need an EMG or other testing of the hand/wrist to help sort things out.

Unclear question: Please describe your symptoms and the pain you are experiencing. Please also expand on the radial artery occlusion if possible; including where is it occluded and why your doctor thinks its occluded. All these factors are important in trying to get to the bottom of this.
