Ok so Yesterday my wrist kinda took a battering. Stupid boy was showing me how to safely restrain people and then click i felt a pain in my wrist. Started to swell a bit and couldn't move it around too much without it hurting but it wasn't too bad so just iced it up and carried on with my day. Then at work i got pushed into a wall directly on it by some idiot and i fell onto it as well. It swelled up again and bruised over but i could still move my fingers and what not. Woke up today however and it really really hurts and i'm struggling to grip things and stuff. I can still move it but not without wanting to cry. Its bruised and there's a few small swollen lumps around my wrist and arm area.
See i'd say its just a sprain and i'm being a wuss but it does really hurt and seems to be getting worse. Should I waste like 5 hours of my life in hospital or just carry on icing it etc? Could it be worse then a sprain?

Sleep on it (not literally, that might hurt a bit) and see what happens. I'd suggest that if you've fallen on it you might have broken it. Likely to be a tiny weeny little break which doctors won't be able to do much about, but it's still best to know. If you don't, you'll probably keep telling yourself it's nothing and make things worse. At least if you know what's happening you're less likely to keep using it and ruin it permanently.

Alternatively, man up, wuss. Your choice!
Signature? Sounds like "shameless-self-promotion-ture" to me

Good advice...although you may be denying yourself a future topic of conversation when people will ask you about your deformed hand and wrist.

forgive me for asking, but why were you being shown how to safely restrain people? are you a bouncer?

He is teaching me self defence stuffs and I was wondering as if anyone ever attacked me I reckon i'd talk to talk but then just crumble. He works in a care home and has to do it often and I was just being stupidly overly curious. And I now work in rock city in notts where it helps if you know this stuff. Turns out the safest way isn't even all that safe tho if your wrists are as flimsy as mine.

Ok, so seriously someone got turned away for wearing a waistcoat im guessing? Thats nuts, should have seen some of the states we had in last night. The Bouncers can be right pricks when there in a bad mood. And also last night they played One direction. Now I don't mind a bit of cheesy pop from time to time don't get me wrong but this is ROCK city!! complete sell out. Its becoming another souless club full of chavs :(
