ok well around 6 months ago i kinda broke my wrist and didnt tell any1 about it...well im not a doctor so im not positive i broke it but i know i injured the bone.


and recently after all that time i fell on it and messed it up again... i dont wanna cast cuz i hate them

does any1 have any tips on wat i can do to speed up the healing process any tips appreciated

pls no spam comments like 'jus sit inside and no life in rs' thats not really an option

edit for gerardcon:

i broke my wrist twice before so i know wat i am talking about,

i simply fell on my wrist with a lot of force, wen it happened i was good for 5-10mins... and then it swelled like crazy it was completely immoblie for 3-4days by the like 6th and 7th day i could use it normal and now its acting up again, i injured it wen i first wrote this thread... 2 days later i still fell it a bit but getting better but i jus now ima fall on it again and injure it:((

the thing is in with my medical insurance....im past 18... so techinaclly i should have my own but if im still in schooling(aka college) i cans till b eligible to b covered under their medi insurance.... assuming im a full time student. full time student is 4 classes per semester and of course this semester i took 3 :/
 
if you dont treat it, it may heal in the wrong way and you may never be able to use it again. i would suggest a splint of arm brace at least. if it heals wrong then it will be 100 times worse when you see the doctor, they may have to rebreak your wrist and take pieces of bones from your hip to put in your wrist. i would suggest just going a doctor for advice you might regret not doing it later
 
Well Heres some advise. I did that once with my leg, I broke the little bone that runs parallel to the bigger bone in half playing ice hockey. I knew it was broken because I had a massive bump popping out the side of my leg. But the thing is it only hurt when I would push on it or fall on it like I did sometimes.

I hate casts too so I didn't tell anyone, I continued to play hockey jumped on the trampoline etc. . .Which hurt but not too much.

About 3 months go by I still have the bump, not a big bump it went down (I guess it kind of healed) and it was time for me to get my xrays on my feet because I had ankle surgery over the summer. Well they took the xrays on my feet, those looked fine but he noticed that I had a break in my leg and it healed wrong.

They had to re-break my leg and then put a cast on it.

Moral of the story, just go to the doctor.
 
It CANNOT heal properly without a cast or at least a splint. Any movement of the bone will cause it's inability to heal or if it does heal your bone will heal incorrectly causing either a large bump in that area or your arm to be bent at a slight angle.

And I bet that you did not break or even fracture the bone. If you did "break" it then you would be in serious pain. Most people do not "break" bones, they merely fracture them. Even with a hairline fracture you would be in pain if you put strain on that bone. Judging by the way you wrote your thread I'm guessing that you are 12 or 13 years old and were just over exaggerating or worrying about something.

And if you want more help go to the doctor which you should do. Your wrist is a very generic term plus you did not say if there was any swelling or if it hurt when I did this or even how you "broke it" And even if you broke it 6 months is enough time to heal.

So go to a doctor. There is no "over the counter" way to speed up the healing process of your bone except for a cast. Sure vitamins and minerals are good and all but no way are they going to help the healing of a bone. Your body has more than enough nutrients stored for that unless of course you are already deficient.
 
The best advice would be to go to the doctor...I had a cast before when I broke my hand...I feel off monkey bars at the age of 8..
 
I broke my wrist last bloody week playing basketball and i was actually mature about it went to the doctor; yea i got the cast and pins blah blah but yea i could not imagine what would happen if i did not pay any attention to it. But then again it wasn't one of those fractures where you are unsure about whether you broke it or not cuz the tip of the bone was sticking out if my skin and it hurt like hell :P
 
Splint it Ice it every night,
Try not to use it... just complain to ur parents that its been hurting cause you fell at school...

they will get it fixxed.
