Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I was playing volleyball and noticed my left wrist was swollen on the right side where my vein is. I put ice on it and it became extremely sensitive to the touch and painful. It is less swollen now after 8 hours but still extremely sensitive. Also, now when I put it down and I guess the blood rushes it is extremely painful and I have to raise it. Should I be worried about a serious injury here?
Dear patient Looking at your symptoms it is clear that there is either a ligament or bone injury inside. The primary step is to get an x ray done and rule out any injury. Then you may also need an mri to see for ligament injury. Get investigated.and revert back with with x rays as the primary screening. Thanks.
