Wrist Pain

[Black1938]

Had a heart attack, nearly two years ago and had stent fitted , when it was done the pain in my wrist was terrible from inserting stent , I have noticed lately I have a lot of pain from the site. Just wondered if anyone else was the same .

No. I’ve had a lot of angiograms, all in the same wrist, and never had that happen. Could be something else,

Hi Black. No, I've had 3 angiograms (2 angioplasty) since my HA 2 years ago , all in the same wrist, but have had no pain after any of them. I agree with Kristin, it might be something else, but worth getting it checked with your GP. xx

I've had two angiograms through the wrist, both painless. The wound healed perfectly and it hasn't left any mark or scar. But I wear a magnetic bracelet for my arthritis and when it's on my right wrist, I often get a sharp pain which feels like someone's stabbing a red hot needle into the place where they inserted the wire. It sounds bizarre, but the pain is very real and it only occurs when I'm wearing the bracelet on that arm. As suggested by the manufacturer, the bracelet is worn loosely, so it's not pressing down on the wound site. I don't have any explanation for it, but do you perhaps wear a watch on that side which could be setting it off?
