Suggest Treatment For Bruise And Lump On Wrist

Yesterday I injured my wrist by accidentally slamming it hard on the thin metal divider thing on a window. It bruised up and hurt a lot. Today there is a large red bruise over it and when I run my finger over the bruise I can feel a lump on the bone. Should I be worried about this?

Hi.
Thanks for your query and an elucidate history.

would advise an MRI . This is the only investigation which can shoe the injury in detail.
This is important as the wrist is one of the most important joint of body.
A proper diagnosis can only lead to a proper treatment.

Till you see an Orthopedic surgeon keel the affected part elevated and apply sling in such a way that movemnt is avoided .
I find this answer helpful
