I was riding my bike and i scraped against a curb and my bike tipped over and fell on me. I didnt really feel any wrist pain until about 30 minutes later, but theres no swelling really but I cant bend my wrist up or down and side to side really because it hurts. what do u think this is, I fell on my wrist I think but I kind of toppled over so im not exactly sure what happened really
I'm 16 do u think I should buy a brace? whats a good inexpensive comfortable ones, that wont sweat that I can buy in the store. I need to buy one because im working at vacation bible school next week and I need to be able to freely move my arm without pain
 
you would have felt it right then when it happened because i fractured my wrist and i felf it right when i fell on it in soccer.. but u should probly go to a doctor.. and its gonna take more than a week to freely move your arm
 
no i fractured my wrist too after i punched some kid in the face and i had to live with it for about a week and a half its not all that bad.
 
It's very likely that you've gotten a fracture. You should see the doctor ASAP, because if you can't move that wrist at all, then chances are that it's broken.
 
I'm an EMT in ohio. We don't diagnose here, but we do always refer patients to an urgent care or a family doctor. Here's why:

Even though you said it's not swollen you can't move it in any direction. It may be a slight fracture. There is no way to find out without an x-ray. In the meantime purchase an ACE bandage wrap and wrap it up. If you are still unable to more it in a day I'd get a ride for an x-ray.
