folks,
So I face planted two weeks ago and fell hard! I naturally used both of my hands to break my fall and protect my face kissing the floor. Imagine you trust fall forward and use your hands to break your fall like you are in a push up position. I used all my strength and my face didn't even hit the ground. It was my chest and thanks to my hands breaking the fall, it wasn't bad at all.
Well, until like a few days passed and I realized I can't absolutely put any weight on my right hand. I can punch just fine but when I open my hand fully or bend it at maximum forward or backward, the upper pal / wrist area is very painful.
It is so painful, I can't even get in a push up position. There is no swelling or bruising. I got an X-ray done and nothing is broke.
So.. Obvious damage to the ligaments, and whatever else is in there. Any tips on how to recover as quick as I can from this? I figured I would ask to you guys as I m sure some of you have experienced this before.
Ibuprofen simply hasn't worked. I need this to heal up in a month because I am gonna be involved in a work related physical activity for promotion reasons and don't want to miss my chances.
Ps been two weeks and the pain is still the same with no improvement whatsoever.
Thanks folks
