What the hell has happened to my wrist??!!

[Ladyks3]

Will call the GP on Monday, just curious if this has happened to anyone else before?? It has looked like this for 2 days now. Like it’s caved in or something. It doesn’t hurt at the moment but it’s certainly not how my other wrist looks or how this one normally looks! DM is visiting & noticed it as well, really freaked her out.

This is my left wrist

Are you tensing it?.what do they look like more relaxed?

This is the weird looking wrist relaxed

Here is my left wrist relaxed

How odd! Zero ideas but I’m quite fascinated! Hope you’re ok!

Get this checked ASAP. My dr said that they hate 'dips' or anything pulling inwards. Hopefully there's just a simple explanation.

Yeah I was gonna say this, dips inwards can be a cause for concern

Looks normal to me?

Mine does the same

There's a difference between always looking a way and a sudden change in a person's own norm.

@PizzaDays that is interesting, I did have a cortisone shot in this wrist back in September, a bad case of “mommy thumb” but the shot took care of it. Pinched nerve from overuse would make sense!

Thanks for the concern everyone. I’ve been having some health anxiety since birth of DC2, when DM pointed my wrist out I became lightheaded & had to put my head between my knees to prevent fainting! This is so out of character for me too, will definitely get this checked as soon as GP opens or sooner if it gets worse.

If you have had an injection recently, could it be that the injectable has tracked back up the needle track and damaged the tissue? I ask because 30 years ago I had an injection of hay fever medication in my arse and the drug tracked back and created a huge crater in my bum, like yours but a lot bigger. It filled back out and didn't cause any problems but it worried the doc until he worked it out.

Meant to say, it took a while and I didn't really notice it happening so it was hard to make the connection initially.
