Just need another rant - advice welcome. Fell 2 weeks ago at soft play landed badly on wrist - ligament damage and possible scaphoid fracture. A number of xrays later they still cant decide if its definaetly not fractured, I understand they are especially keen to make 100% sure its not fractured because if it doesnt heel well then can cause serious problems.
Am at work but trying not to do too much, but to be honest thats not always possible - I work in childcare and little ones just dont understand why I cant do X today. Been experiencing tingling/numbness and today it got worse and was really bad by this afternoon, phoned GP to try get an appointment after work but she was inssistant I go to A&E right away. So I did - they said its swollen and the swelling is pressing on the nerves and thats the reason for my lack of feeling etc. And possibly have been doing too much with the hand and having it down alot and I have to keep it up when it feels like that and put an ice pack on it.
Any other advice/experiences/tips to help? Have A&E follow up clinic on Monday again.
I do not want to be off work - however if its afffecting my hand I will - especially as its my right hand. Really want to do everything I can so it heals well.
