I sprained my wrist around three (almost 4) years ago in (2018). I was not sure if I broke my wrist. I never saw a doctor. Now and then I get shocks of pain that move all the way up my arm. Is this normal after an injury this long ago?
Hi there, I think I might have sprained my wrist but don't think it's so severe that I need to visit a doctor for it. Could you advise on self-care and medication to relief pain? It's pretty tender (can't swing my hand up or down, nor left or right)
