Suggest Treatment For Stiff And Sore Wrist After Injury
hello, i am just wondering if the extent of my injury is severe or not i fell yesterday, and i had pain after in my wrist. i woke up today with it being very stiff and sore. it hurts more when i bend my wrist down. it hurts to put any pressure on it and it hurts to lift/hold anything. is this severe.
Not to worry much as this pain and stiffness is because of the trauma you had last nigh and it may be there for some time..but try to make movements of your wrist slowly slowly...and see to it that the swelling doesn't increasse...for pain you may take diclofinac paracetamol for 2-3 days under your physician's advice and still it pan persists you can take a xray to be on a safer side
