yes dear, swollen and painful wrist indicate trauma of some kind.I kindly request u to visit a physician and get the diagnosis done, since these type of bruises r also present when u r under medications for thinning blood.

thanks for choosing health care magic.See swelling and pain is suggestive of some trauma though many not be noticeable at that time.Bruising after pain in that ares needs at least a medical examination by your doctor.If you are taking any medicines like ecosprin etc that also needs to be seen.so please visit your doctor.Avoid heavy pressure on that part and lifting too much of weight by that wrist.
