Question
After falling off an electric scooter, I experienced a strain in the tendons of my right wrist, with swelling. For the first two days, movement was painful, but by the third day, the symptoms eased. I’m asking how many days it will take to return to work, as I’m under significant financial pressure and hope to find a way to quickly resume work.
Answer
It is recommended to first undergo an X-ray to confirm if there is any fracture. Next, you should rest and allow your wrist to be immobilized for three weeks. Regionally, you can use internal Chinese medicine, and in the first three days, apply ice packs. Afterward, switch to heat therapy, in conjunction with taking oral Chinese medicine to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis.
