What Is The Cause For Painful Movement In My Wrist?
About a yea ago I woke up and thought I had a broken wrist. I went to bed with no pain in my wrist at all, when I woke up I was sure my wrist was broken. The pain lasted about 4 days. I wore a wrist wrap and took about 12 advil a day until almost as suddenly as the pain came on it went away. Jump forward to this morning and I would swear to a Doctor I have broken a bone in my wrist. Side to side movement is very painful but to try and make a waving motion would be shockingly painful. I am LOST as to what this could possibly be. Thank you in advance for any information you may have..

Hi,
I have studied your case with diligence
You may need X ray of wrist to rule out any minor fracture.
You can consult your doctor by taking appointment, apperantly it does not seems like emergency. Injury doesn’t seem serious.
Till time continue using wrist support.
Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.
