A member asked:

Bone bruise on hand 6 weeks ago. doc says it still needs more time and no restrictions. wearing brace at work and ace bandage at home with ice. how serious is this injury? how should i take care of it? constantly using my hand?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Continue/time: It sounds like you are doing the right things. If it is indeed just bruised, then using it/working will not make things worse (which is not the case for a fracture or torn ligaments) but it may just take longer to become pain free
