Fractured wrist in child

[Yourmysunshine2]

Dd fell over at school and hurt her wrist. It's a bit painful when she moves it. But she can flap or about and still use her tablet. But says it hurts if she moves it in a certain way. But if she can flap it about without much pain. It's not likely to be fractured is it?

I may take her A&E

It's probably best to get it checked out. Being able to move it doesnt mean it's not broken.

I agree with @NancyDonahue

My eldest slipped over and hit the fridge to break her fall. Could move her wrist, wiggle her fingers, was painful but calpol removed the pain but next day it was swollen like a balloon - took her to get it checked and it was green stick fracture.
