Fractured/sprained/bruised wrist
Its been a week and a half since my blunt force injury to a part of my wrist. There's been bruising and immediate swelling but most of the swelling is gone. There's a bump on my radii by my thumb. What could be causing that? There's only pain if I use it too much. With rest the pain diminishes. The pain gets worse throughout the day and in the morning it's fine. I have all function and I don't really feel any weakness. Just throbbing pain especially at the base of thumb joint near the wrist.

⢠Contrast bath---It is a form of treatment where a limb or the entire body is immersed in warm water followed by the immediate immersion of the limb or body in ice water. This procedure is repeated several times, alternating hot and cold. Note that the treatment should always end in the ice water, as heat will induce the body's inflammatory response, while cold helps to decrease inflammation
