Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Persisting Pain In The Wrist After An Injury?
I fell 2 weeks ago today and sprained my left wrist and also had whiplash. Last night my other wrist started hurting...hurts if hand is touched near pinky and has an ache feeling near thumb. At times my pinky feels a bit tingly. My other hand was only one that got x rayed. Should I get my right hand looked at...is it normal for it to hurt after so much time has passed?
Pain in left wrist also needs to be investigated. The pain could be due to trauma. An X-ray of the wrist will help to know the cause of pain in the wrist.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Shailja Puri, Pathologist and Microbiologist
