Accident please help?!


Question:

Accident please help?

My fiance tripped on a magazing today and we are almost positive that he either fractured the part of his wrist right below the thumb or tore a ligament....... So what I was wondering is what can we find around the house to secure it and what kind of medications can he take to at least ease the pain for the next 4 hours.....


Answers:

actually you could splint his wrist with the magazine itself... curl it uparound the wrist so he cant bend it then tape it around securely. You could use a couple wooden spoons from the kitchen with tape.... or take a sleeping pillow and wrap it around the arm BUT it will be awfully bulky! It will protect it from bumps and more pain though. You need to have him go get it looked at so it can be splinted properly or casted. hope this helps... good luck!
