My wrist hurts please help?!


Question: My left wrist hurts a ton but I can still move it and do normal activities with it. There's no bruising, or swelling but the veins are popping out a little. I asked my coach and she thinks I hyperextended it, but I can't be sure. Any help? Thanks!

There is no way to tell the exact extent of an injury unless you do an xray to see the bones and a mri to see the ligements and tendons. For pain relief use the acronym RICE. Rest, Ibiphrofen, Cooling, Elevation. So rest it, take a couple advil or ibiphrofen, put an ice pack on it for 20 min on and 20 min off for an hour and elevate it above the level of your heart.

How long has it been hurting? If it has been a couple of months and doctors don't know what is wrong, maybe you need a wrist arthrogram, which includes an MRI afterwards.

you probably hyper extended it
