Question 1

how can i help my wrist that i'd injured while playing soccer?

Accepted Answer

Evalutation: Difficult to say for sure.  If you have a tendonitis, this should improve with rest, ice, time, and possibly a wrist brace.  My concern is that you might have something more serious such as a fracture of a wrist bone which can start out as a nagging pain but become more severe.  If it doesn't improve in 2 weeks i would see a doctor and get an xray.  Good luck, .
