Brief Answer:
Kindly confirm the area of pain

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

Is the pain at the wrist or waist? Is there swelling at the spot? is there any restriction in movement? Can you upload a photo of the area? Have you tried any medicine or gel?

Sprains usually get better by them few days or maximum 3 weeks. We need to give complete rest to the joint for better healing. If it is a wrist sprain, a wrist brace can be worn for 3 weeks 24/7.

Please let me know the details so that I am better able to help.

Regards,
Dr Vaishalee
