Wrist injury
On Tuesday I woke up with my wrist in pain, the pain was tolerable so I though I just slept on it wrong. Yesterday the pain got bad so I went to my local urgent care. I told the P.A about the pain and where it hurt and he couldn't diagnose the injury. It hurts when I move it side to side and up and down and the pain is very bad when I move my wrist towards my chest. They didn't give me and X-ray or any help at all and prescribed me 500 mg of naporysn. I don't know if my wrist is sprained, or just bruised maybe even fractured.

Hello there.
I can understand your concern.
I don't think it would have fractured.
Just take the medications prescribed and you will be fine in a. Few days.
You can apply a ice pack .
If it still persists, then may a x-ray and other tests may be required.
Best regards.
