I burned my pointer finger and now my wrist hurts, why?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Finger burn with: hurting wrist. It MAY be that you are compensating for the temporary loss of use of your finger by holding your wrist in an unusual position causing strain. Please see your doc to have your wrist examined. Peace and good health.
