General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi.

I would first recommend an xray of your wrists to assess the current state, based on which treatment will be advised. But what you can do right now is usr an elastic bandage to keep the wrist is a healthy and partially immobilized state, ice pack to the region, rest the wrist and use a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (e.g. ibuprofen) which should help get you a little more comfortable. Visit an orthopedician for further management.

Best wishes.
