Was told i sprained my wrist and i am still getting sharp pains in it what could that mean?

It may take time...: Sometimes it may take time to recover from a wrist sprain.if a nerve is irritated it could hurt even more. Make sure you are immobilizing the wrist and taking Antiinflammatory meds if you are not allergic or intolerant. If persistent you might need therapy or further testing. Make sure you follow up with your doctor.
