Hi,
From the history, it seems to be either a ligament sprain or a muscle/tendon strain. Whatever the underlying cause the treatment is more or less the same.
Rest, ice packs, analgesics and if it hurts a lot then wrist splint as well
Next Steps
if it is unbearable, or persists for a longer period, consult a doctor online, due to the recent restrictions.
