Hubby was not able to go to work yesterday due to his wrist injury. It happened last Thursday when they have dismantled our double size bunk bed which was for sale to a friend. He said that he didn't feel anything that night, but the following day when he woke up, he compalined of wrist pain. He thought that I slept over his hand but I know that I did not. I just put pain reliever gel on the affected site and a tube bandage to minimize the movement of the area. Few days passed and he's still complaining about his wrist and that the pain wasn't subsiding at all. So finally came the day when the movement of his right wrist was decreased and a little bit of movement caused him pain. I've told him that we need to go to an orthopedic doctor to have his wrist checked.
Yesterday, we went to Welcare Gusais Clinic for an appointment. An xray was done and his wrist was assessed and the diagnosis is, ligament tear sprain of the right wrist. Good thing his bones wasn't affected and it is just a little tear. The doctor said that it will heal on its own but in time. So he's prescribed with pain reliever tablets and gel. His hand is bandaged as well and he needs to keep it for 2 days. Atleast now, we know what happened and an intervention is given to him to alleviate the pain. It's hard feeling pain and going to work at the same time,especially if we use our hands at work most. So let's all love and care for our hands because it is hard having an injured one.
