Hi, Umm i recently gotten hurt at work and sent to the ER. They did xrays no broken bones but they said i have a contusion on the top of my hand where i had it smashed at. It has gotten progressivily worse over the last 48 hrs sending pains down to my elbow and tingling feeling that wont go away. Normal?
Hi I have read your description of injury, and now it is causing pain OTP elbow and tingling sensation. Your x-rays are normal. It is quite possible that you have soft tissue injury at the wrist causing swelling inside the wrist joint. In my clinic I would advise, splint age (Immobilization of wrist) to reduce further damage to soft tissues due to movement, prescribe painkillers and rest (For The affected hand) for 2-3 weeks.
