A member asked:
I dropped a piece of a tombstone on my wrist and its swollon but i can still move my fingers its on the ulnar side underneath the bone is all swollen?

Swelling pain: Certainly can indicate anything from a bad bruise to a fracture. The fact that you can move your fingers does not mean there is no fracture. Ice and gentle elevation and immobilization to start and if pain and selling persists get medical attention.
