Suggest Treatment For Sharp Pain And Swelling In The Wrist
Whole working, I noticed my left wrist suddenly had a sharp pain and was swollen and discolored from bruising. The area continues to throb and is swollen slightly. Does this require any immediate attention? I do not recall hitting it on anything however I had a hair tie on my wrist at the time I felt the pain.

Hi dear, discoloration indicates some obstruction and compression on blood supply so it requires an immediate attention of surgeon or Neurologist if you are feeling throbbing pain and swelling. please do not delay and take consultation
Mean while do hot water compression for pain and swelling.
Hope this will help
Thanks and regards
