See below: If you had a traumatic fall which usually occurs on an outstretched hand/wrist you most likely having an occult wrist (distal radius fracture or other corpus or bone contusion.) a spring diagnosis is commonly misused by the emergency room and several patients do not follow up with the appropriate treatment or follow-up physicians as recommended as as patient's thought "" they had a sprain "and should go away on its own have a evaluation by an orthopedic hand specialist good luck thank you.
