Suggest Treatment For Severe Wrist Pain

2 years ago I fell when jogging and put my hands out to catch me. Since then I have pain in my right wrist but it comes and goes. Sometimes it will be fine for months, then sometimes like now I can't lift myself up or put pressure on it without a lot of pain. I can actually put my finger on it firmly and reproduce and pinpoint the location of the pain as well. I'm sure I need some imaging but it's been 2 years so I'm thinking the damage is probably done. Any thoughts? Thank you very much.

Hi
Welcome to healthcaremagic
I have gone through your query and understand your concern.Looking to your description it seems that you are having ligament injury.Whenever you work more with this wrist it become painful. Treatment of it is rest and analgesic such as ibuprofen for pain relief. Vitamin B and C help in recovery. You can further investigate by MRI of wrist joint. You can discuss with your doctor about it. Hope your query get answered. If you have any clarification then don't hesitate to write to us. I will be happy to help you.

Dear patient
Chronic pain of 2 years duration with intermittent nature indicate early arthritis symptoms. You need to go for mri of wrist. MRI correctly identifies soft tissue as well as bony abnormalities. So visit radiology center nearby you and get mri done. Visit expert arthroscopic surgeon nearby you with report.
