Suggest Treatment For Severe Pain In The Wrist

i have a shooting pain from my wrist (at hand towards elbow) it almost feels like a surge of heat. it is by no means constant and is worse in the morning (right out of bed) and generally happens when I twist my wrist. It will happen occasionally throughout the day as my wrist bends or twists

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
By your history and description, possibility of musculoskeletal pain is more.
So better to consult orthopedic doctor and get done clinical examination and x ray of affected wrist joint to rule out internal pathology.
Avoid weight lifting and strenuous exercise.
Avoid movements causing pain.
Apply warm water pad on affected areas.
Take painkiller and anti inflammatory drugs.
Don't worry, you will be alright with all these.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
