I am getting a pain in my right arm after getting three tooth removed with sedation .The arm also feel like it has a small lump under the skin. The other meds I took were one Loranzapan the night before the surgery and two the morning of .then three tylonol a day for pain. What could be causing this.
Hello, I can understand your concern. The procedure of tooth extraction itself has no relation with pain in arm if the extractions were done under local anesthesia. However, if you were sedated for the extractions, the sedatives must have been given through IV line. If the same arm is having pain as the hand that was used for sedation, then it might be due to needle puncture. In that case, you can apply ice or Thrombophob Gel to the area of lump which will help in faster healing of the needle injury. If the other arm is having pain or if the pain worsens over time, then you should visit the physician for examination of the lump area and necessary treatment. I hope this information helps you. Thank you for choosing Chat Doctor. I hope you recover faster. Best,
