I think i sprained my wrist. what should i do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Get it evaluated: A simple wrist sprain will heal in 2-6 weeks. A Velcro splint that you can buy in a drugstore will protect you while it is healing. If there is tenderness over the bone or when you move your thumb it is more likely that there is a bone fracture. Go to a doctor and get an x-ray in that case.
