hi i fell on the ice and hit my right bottom hand.. it kinda felt like i jammed my lower hand, but now i am getting radiating pain through the side of hand up to my elbow.. hurts pretty bad but i keep using just thinking it will be ok.. what should i do about it
Hello, I have studied your case and It looks to me that it can be a bony or ligament injury in wrist. I have following suggestions for you. 1.Get x ray of the wrist. 2.If there is any hair line fracture than you might need splinting. If there is no fracture than compression bandage can be applied. 3.Tablet Brufen 400 mg twice daily. 4.Volitra gel local application. 5.Hot water fomentation I hope these steps will be helpful for you.Let me know if there is any other followup questions. thanks
