Have I broken my hand?!
Question: Have I broken my hand?
Hi,
I was kicked on my hand very hard two days ago. I iced it immediately, but it is still incredibly painful. I can wiggle my fingers and make a loose fist, although twisting, or using my hand is sends a shooting pain in one place. It is tender to touch, but not very sore. Its only slightly swollen (although i very rarely swell up/bruise). The pain seems to be on the little finger side of my hand quite near my wrist. Im reluctant to go to the Dr's in case it is just a bad bone bruise!! Any advice/suggestions? Thank-you!!
