it still might be broken thats wat happened to my wrist i thought i had only sprained it cuz it didnt hurt much but it turned out i had slightly broken it. you should see a doctor as soon as possible to get x rays and maybe even a cast if it is broken or fractured till then take some painkillers like tylenol or advil. and remember go to a doctor as soon as possible it may be fractured or broken! i hope this helps! get well soon!!
P.S if it is broken or fractured and you leave it without getting a cast or visiting a doctor it will heal improperly and will hurt permanantly unless you have the doctors rebreak it to let it heal properly or get it treated by doctors b4 that happens hurry! emergency room time here! and dont use that wrist! immobolize it!
put a first aid bandage on it
just dont use it and maybe get a sling or something from a local walmart. there is nothing you can really do or the doctor can give you to help a sprain. time is you only medicine.
that happens to me all the time! it's not that bad 4 u really. all u have to do is go to walgreens or like the pharmacy and ask for a ace bandage then if you dont know how to wrap it after you buy it you could ask if they will show you how. keep that on for about a week or if it starts to not hurt that bad 3 days.
