Weighlifter's wrist: It is most likely scaphoid impaction syndrome, which is a condition where there are wrist bones and covering called the capsule that gets impingement when the wrist is bent upward with force as you describe. It can respond to physical therapy in most case or simply strapping the wrist for support. If that does not work seek a sports medicine consultation.
