I have a question about wrist pains. The only time my wrist hurts is when I lean on it and bend it farther back, but it never hurts doing anything else. When I lean on my wrist or bend it, there is a sharp pain on the inside of my wrist. What do you think is wrong, and should I try a wrist brace?
Hi there, thanks for your question at ChatDoctorPain in the wrist on extremes of movements and on leaning is expected and nothing uncommon. I don't think it would bother me as a doctor if you presented with this kind of pain. As the solution is to avoid doing movements which cause you pain. If in the other hand if you had pain on more routine movements it would suggest inflammation or arthritis. And if you had pain at rest it would suggest infection or arthritis. So at present you can be rest assured that, there is nothing to worry about. Hope this helps the best. Regards Chat Doctor.
