ok, im pretty sure you have a sprained wrist, but since its hurting w/o activity, it might be majior and last for a long period of time. put an ice patch on ur wrist so u can numb the pain. do this whenever you can when ur parents arent around-they'll thanks something suspiticious is happening. take an advil or tylonel every 7 hrs to help calm the pain if it hurts that bad. take it easy. tell the nurse about it if they dont call ur parents.
ps: dont wrap it. leave it open so blood can flow through easy. its better for it. although pressure is more comefortable on ur arm, try to just use ice. hope i could help!

It never ceases to amaze me how people will write a question on here but not go to a doctor.

go to a hospital and avoid future problems

tell your parents. they won't overreact. just say it hurt when you woke up and you don't know what happened.

You're probably ok since you just typed this long **** paragraph.

probably sprained let it sit for a couple a days then see what happens

You really should tell your parents. It could be broken.

i think u should tell your parents

try getting a brace! or get any strong material to wrap it.

TELL YOU PARENTS! DONT BE DENSE! You may have broke it! Go to a doctor! This is what parents are best for. They over react when kids like you don't tell them the important stuff! This is your body your hurting. You only get one body! Go get it fixed! Gosh!

DOCTER.......
=)

you need to tell your parents so they can take u to the hospital! my brotherr rolled his ankle during soccer practice one time and it turns out he actually stretched his muscle damaged it permanetly you need to get it checked out

um... all the way around????? taht thing is AT LEAST sprained, you have to see a doctor

Buck up and tell the parentals. They wount be over reacting if your wrist is broken.

put an ice pack on it for a little while & see if that helps. If not, it may just be sore for a couple days, maybe it's a little bruised. I highly doubt it's broken tho or you'd be in much more pain. Wait a couple days & if the pain doesn't subside, just tell your parents it was an accident and call your doc. Never ignore something that hurts. good luck :)

You might have sprained it... But I'd go to the emergencies anyway

you could have a torn legament.

or you, yourself could be over-reacting.

either way you should tell your parents and have them take you to the doctors.

Sound like you sprain you wrist to me....you should still have it looked at.

First of all, put some ice on it for the swelling and pain. Then tomorrow, if it is still hurting you may need to see a doc. Take some Ibuprofen for the pain as well (or alieve). Just tell them you hurt it while trying to carry your backpack or something.

haha it hurts but u can type hhaaha
ahh u probably just twisted it dont worry just ice it and wrap it itll hurt for a while but you'll be fine

well honestly i would tell them so you can go to the doctor and he can wrap it properly and find out in detail what is the problem. I would try to take some Tylenol or something like that, but if it doesn't work only the doc can prescribe you something for your pain.

Hope your wrist gets better soon!

just tell them say mom dad i twisted my wrist during basketball and it really hurts that what i would do.

you couldve sprained it or broken it tell your parents so you can get it fixed cause trying to hide it will make it worst. umm try taking some pain killers for the pain and get off yahoo answers and go to a hospital

he probable broke it you need to go to the Doctor and get a x-ray done! tell your parents its ok it they over react! you need to get a cast! i broke mine playing soccer, i didn't know it was broken, actually it hurt for like 4 days and it was killing me, i didn't think it was broken but it was..and i found that out but telling my mom and going to the docter!

are u serious?
ok got to the doctor and get a cast so it can be better.
i hope you the 13 old girl get better i feel bad.lol.

i'm prety much the sme age as you this happens to me all the time at football. if you have medical tape wrap it in that then before you go to bed and when you wake up in the morning, with FOOD, tape like two Ibprophens (motrin/Advil). then when you go to bed at nite take like a heat pad or a warm washcloth (something that can hold heat) and wrap it around your wrist for like a half hour.
Good luck

go to a doctor. wrists arent supposed to go ALL the way around

owch i did the same thing! try wraping it in gosse[big white long cloth banndage] or take like a towel or rag and roll it around your wrist and tape it so its hard to bend your wrist. The less you bent it, the sooner it will heal. I wish you good luck[=

If you really do not want your parents to find out I would take whatever change you may have and check the Internet for the closest health clinic, my town has clinic's inside of certain Walgreen's, check the bus route, then ride the bus over there. Just let them know you want someone to look at it, most clinics in my town will just look at it and tell you if you need a doctor, buy the brace from any pharmacy. I'm sure they will not turn down a helpless 13 year old girl.

Take Ibuprophen and put ice on it. Also, wrap it nice and snug with an ace bandage. If it doesnt get better in a day or two. You will need to see a doctor. Be honest with your parents, They are more concerned about their children than your realize. If they over react over a little fun, i'd say thats a little silly but i am in no place to judge. I dont know you or them.

dont worry about your parents over-reacting. a boy should never do that to you, that is way too rough. Your wrist could be very badly sprained and can only get better if u see a doctor. is your wrist swollen. How are u supposed to write in school if your wrist hurts and how r u going to explain to your teacher that u cant write. tell your parents.
