How Can Swelling And Pain In The Wrist Be Treated?
My fiance s wrist was red and started swelling this morning. The wrist was sore to the touch. When she arrived home this afternoon, the redness had spread and, the soreness is still there. She also said that her wrist was stiff. She experienced a similar situation with her ankle about 7 months ago. We had her blood tested, sonogram, ultrasound tests all showed nothing. It took about a month and, it cleared up. Any suggestions?

Hello,
As of now, you can use analgesics/anti-inflammatory combination like Aceclofenac/Serratiopeptidase for symptomatic relief.
If symptoms persist better to consult an orthopedician and get evaluated.
In that case, an MRI scan might be required.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
