Question: What is wrong with my wrist!!! Please help I'm 13 years old and very scared!!!!?
Swelling of hand and fingers
Little bruising
Non-stop throbbing of thumb and index finger
Pain on scale 1-10 is about a 6-7 right now. At times it's so bad I can't sleep
Tingling in index finger and thumb
Aching in arm, thumb, and all fingers
Unable to move thumb and index finger
Coldness in thumb
Shooting pain right where I broke my thumb
Hurts to move my wrist in any direction
I have an appointment on April 4th to see if it's healed. I'm 13 years old and can't get to the doctor any earlier. I've been icing my hand whenever I get to it and I've been taking painkillers but they don't do a thing.
1. Could my thumb still be broken?
2. What will the doctors do for it?
Also please don't tell me to go back to therapy back I was crying and almost screaming in pain when I was there. I think my therapist was pushing me way to far way to quickly.
I know I already asked this question but I would like more answers! So not rude answers please! Also if you have already answered this question before please dont answer. Thanks!
Answers:
Sorry to hear that you're in so much. I'm not a doctor or even a nurse, but it sounds like your thumb is still broken or at least hasn't healed correctly. Surgery to correct it might be in your future. You won't know for sure until your next appointment. If the pain is too unbearable maybe your mom or dad can take you to the ER although since yours is not an urgent case you'd probably be there half the night before being seen by a doctor. Maybe your mom can call the doctor in the morning to see if they can get you in any sooner.
