Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I think i sprained my wrist last night. it s quite swollen. I tripped and tried to stop my fall by putting my hand out and I fell on my hand. Should I go to an Immediate Care facility first thing in the morning? I ve bee icing it and taking Advil.
dear friend it will be important to get your wrist Xrayed to rule out any fracture. the fall you have described usually results in a fracture so please visit the emergency if possible right away and get your self treated properly
