Broken/Sprained Wrist?
How do you tell the difference between a broken or sprained wrist?
Yesterday while working on cars, I overexerted my wrist trying to
loosen a bolt. I had my wrist in an odd position, and suffice it to
say, I heard a crunch noise in my hand. I was okay the rest of the
day, but then later that day, my wrist started feeling really sore.
There's a mild pain there when I move it. I've tried keeping it
immobile, but you have to realize that you use your wrists all the
time. Even now as I'm typing. In fact, when my wrist first started
hurting, I initially thought it was carpal tunnel, even though
I've NEVER had carpal tunnel before.
