Should I Be Worried About A Painful And Sensitive Skin After A Fracture?
Hi. I fractured my wrist on Sept 10 in two areas on my right hand. My hand continues to be painful and it hurts to touch my skin. I have looked up as much information on what to expect and a wondering if this is normal. I wondering if I am having a pinched nerve as well. Any ideas?

Hello,
The pinched nerve can cause a sensitive skin. I suggest using an anti inflammatory medication such as Ibuprofen to relieve the symptoms. If the sensitivity continue,I suggest to consult a neurologist for further evaluation.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
