Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I was at my local ER with major wrist pain, the Dr. refused to do anything except an xray. she said that everything looked good, but what about my ligaments and tendons? those don t show up on an xray. then she wanted to give me naproxen even though I have IBS and it hurts me more than it does good. what should I do?
hi Do not worry. Just take tylenol tabs thrice a day after meals and do hot fomentation of wrist. Apply locally voltaren gel after fomentation and wear a wrist bad or wrist brace for few days to restrict its movements.It will subside soon. Regards
