I fell on my wrist, what could it be?
I feel hard the other day, with most of the pressure on one hand. Now my wrist hurts going up the side of my arm by that bone that sticks out. I know I didn't break the bone. And I'm not complaining about pain, I just want to know if it sounds like something serious, and if it will be ok if it goes untreated. I can use my hand, but it just hurts to put pressure on it. I can't comfortably move it alot, like, turning the window crank in the car.
So what could this be? Bruised muscle, something else? Ideas are appreciated. Thanks
Have you gone to the doctor and had it x-rayed? It could be cracked, or maybe just bruised. Take some aspirin or Aleve and if it is not better by Monday call the doctor and make an appointment.

It could be sprained or bruised. How do you know that it isn't broken though? Unless you had it x-rayed there is no way to tell if there is a hairline fracture or not.

You might've sprained or wrenched your wrist...but it could be as bad as torn ligaments or damaged muscles. I'd say that if there's no severe bruising or swelling, give it a couple of days. If the discomfort persists, make an appointment with your dr and request a panel of xrays.
Good luck and feel better:)

I've often had falls when I've injured my right knee. After a few days the pain goes away, no big deal.
Now I'm having pain in my knee and an x-ray shows fluid in the area. I'm not sure that immediate treatment at any time could have prevented this from happening, but if I were you, I wouldn't just ignore it.
God bless, and I hope it's nothing serious!

Go get an X-ray and have a doctor properly diagnosis it. They can tell you if its broken, a fracture, a sprain or a twist but only a doctor can tell you for sure...feel better!

x-ray all the way.

It sounds like a sprain, strain, or bruise. Ice it down if you can, it'll heal faster. It could take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks to completely heal, and you can always bandage it up yourself to make sure you don't reinjure it.
