First get a diagnosi: As a sprain " can mean so many things see a hand surgeon there could be a contusion or something as severe as a complete ligament disruption even with negative x-rays. early rx includes, ice, splinting and NSAIDs but don't assume the injury is simple if pain continues, it can be quite complex

I landed on my hands while goalkeeping. It felt as if my wrist was sprained & was painful for a few days. However, the sprain never fully healed. My wrist hurts when I put weight on it, particularly when it's bent backwards. What could be the issue?

I went to express care and they took x rays of my wrist they said it was sprained and put me in a brace i think it is broke or fractured because it still hurts and i can kinda move my hand in the brace but it still hurts ?
