What Causes Pain In Wrist And Bone Around The Little Finger?

I clean houses for a living and today my wrist is hurting. I don t think I did any specific thing to injure it but under my little finger around that bone hurts and if I move my hand certain ways it hurts all the way to my elbow. or if I rotate my wrist underside up it really hurts. I couldn t make it to the doctor today but think if it continues to hurt I may have to go to a walkin clinic close by. I have arthritis in the middle finger of that same hand. I usually have a high tolerance for pain but I am wondering if I fractured it. (it is not swollen).

Hello
This doesn't sound like a fracture--it's likely a case of tendonitis in the forearm since it bothers you from the elbow to the hand.

It's treated with a brace and ibuprofen
