At the beginning of December I fell and put out my hand to stop myself. It hurt for 3 weeks before I gave up and saw a Doctor who said it may be a Scaphoid fracture, and sent me for an Xray.
The couldn't see a fracture so said it must be soft tissue damage and sent me to physio who gave me a splint for it. Even the Physio was surpsied it wasn't broken. I was told to wear the splint and rest it etc, as it started to be less painful I was given exercises and for the past month I have been able to use it somewhat normally, but it tires easily and starts to ache when I do things such as typing or using a mouse. I also cannot stand any vibration in it such as using a strimmer.
Until Monday!
I was "Hi Fived" by a young lad, and bless him, it was very gentle. But I felt a click in my wrist and a sudden pain. I'm now back to square 1. I was hoping that if I just started using the support again it would settle, but I'm still getting really painful twinges - catch your breath type pain.
Should I go back to the Doctors and insist on another Xray? Or just wear the support and not use it for the next few weeks?
Thanks for you ideas.
