Wrist injury - What do i do?!
Question: Wrist injury - What do i do.?
Hiya
I went ice skating yesterday and seeing as I am completely useless at it I fell loads of times. When I left the ice rink my wrists were really sore and later that night the pain had me in tears, After taking a painkiller, the pain died down and my wrists were just a bit sensitive. Today my wrists are sore again - but not as bad as last night.
My parents think I might have a hairline fracture or something. My wrists are not swollem or bruised, just sore. I find it difficult to apply pressure on them but i can move them and pick up things.
When i fell the first time, i landed on my bottom, but my arms went numb and i felt like i was going to faint - i dont remember putting my hands out to stop myself falling but i might of seeing as my wrists hurt. I did fall on my hands later on in the day.
My question is, should i go see a doctor and get my wrists x-rayed or am i just a bit bruised.
Thanks very muchHealth Question & Answer

Answers:
I had fallen on my wrist when i was little iceskating too but mine was a really bad pain and it did swell quite a lot. see if there is bruising and swelling etc and watch your wrists for a few days if they are still bad go to the fracture clinic at the hospital and get them checked.

I would leave this to the experts and go and get a doctor to check you out, I don't think anyone can help you apart from a doctor. I think if you had a break then you'd still be in extreme pain but i could be wrong I'd go go go hun just to be on the safe side.Health Question & Answer
