Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Your actual symptoms can be a symptom that your cuts areas may be infected or at least there is a problem with the healing process.
I suggest to try some Ice to your wrist to reduce pain and swelling,to disinfect the cuts areas and than to consult your doctor without delay because it is necessary to see is there is a real problem with your injuried wrist and arm and if you need any speficic treatement for this problem.
Hope this is helpful.
Let me know if i can assist you further.
