What Does A Bump On Wrist Caused After An Injury Indicate?
Hi A few days ago I fell off my ripstick and now my wrist hurts. I went to the doctor to get it check out and they said that it was fine. But there is a bump on my wrist. I can feel that it s my bone but it does not hurt when move my wrist. It only hurts when I touch it but its kind of scaring me. It also giving me shooting pain up my arm. I hope this is nothing major and it would go back to normal. Thanks Miranda
Hello madam, The swelling that you are having over wrist is because of accumulation fluid at site site of trauma. As your doctor have evaluated your condition and assuring you nothings wrong then i assume no bony injury is there and swelling is just soft tissue edema which will subside after some days . Apply warm application to it 5min hourly for 2-3 days and it might subside. Dont be anxious about it , it will be fine. Thank you.
