Bluegal
by Artery Prob, Sep 05, 2005 12:00AM
Starting maybe 3 weeks ago; pain in thumb tip, some fingers, randomly, comes quickly- hurts like heck, goes away. All of a sudden LUMP in my palm (palmar branch of radial artery per the hand surgeon referred to bc my primary care doc did think it needed to be addressed quickly) - the lump has its own pulse. The surgeon says this is an aneursysm and he plans on going in on this friday to remove this portion of the artery and tie off the loose ends -
I am not convinced he has looked into this enough- and will be cancelling tomorrow. Just today my pinky tip(OTHER HAND!!) came into SERIOUS pain - out of the blue & now feels a bit numb. I am 33 and really quite healthy - no blunt trauma to hand, no other issues i can think of, nonsmoker...
The surgeon isnt worried of any immediate dangers with the pulsating artery - bluegal. Have you found out any new info?
