Detailed Answer:
Welcome to health care magic, I share your concern and I will try to help you out in best possible way.
The description you have given makes me conclude that you might have sustained wrist sprain. which will heal only with complete rest and usage of either crepe bandage or wrist case which you can get it in any pharmacy. try not to lift weight or play a racket sport which will only hamper the healing process.
I hope this helps you
If you have any further query, I would be glad to help you.

Well, it usually take 4-6 weeks of rest. i recommend to use wrist brace.. which not only reduces pain but also restricts sudden movements at wrist joint and allow ligaments to heel.
Hope this clarifies your doubts. Revert back to me if you have follow up queries.
