Hello, Last Saturday, I Tripped, And Fell On My Right
Hello,
Last saturday, I tripped, and fell on my right wrist, and ever since I've been in so much pain. For those next 3 days after my injury, my mom put an ace bandage on my wrist to keep it from moving. On the 3rd day, I went to my peditrician and all the doctors were scared that it was broken. I was rushed to the ER when I was told it was just a sprain, and I'm evening doubting that it is. Ever since, I have been wearing a wrist brace and was told to take it off on Tuesday. Do you think I should go back? I have wrist pain, I cannot bare movement, and my hand and fingers, exept my pinky, are numb and cannot move them as well. What should I do? Is my wrist really broken?
Thanks in advance,
Lauren
