i've had fallen of my bike on my wrist, it hurts

Goodness so sorry for your fall. Was your arm and wrist Xrayed? If not it MUST BE Xrayed. Any good doctor would X-ray even before putting a cast on.

I'd go to another doctor or to the hospital emergency and tell them my wrist really hurts please X-ray it. Get another opinion. 

Let me know how it goes. The cast should have been put on and taken off in one week with NO X-ray after the cast was off. I was taken to the hospital and they Xrayed me there.  I was Xrayed 3 times in the 6 weeks I had my casts on. I had a splint 1st for one week from the hospital then X-ray when I went to my surgeon. Then cast on for 3 weeks then off and Xrayed. Casts on 3 more weeks then off and Xrayed. That was when my orthopedic surgeon said they were okay without cast. 

I skidded and fell down on my wrist in July. It was x rayed straight away and a temporary plaster applied. It was then x rayed again a week later and a new more permanent plaster applied. Another x ray after 2 weeks and then i was told that the plaster would be removed after 4 more weeks. Have you had no x rays at all? If this is right, then I think you should go back to the hospital and get it checked.

Yes like the others, I'd say if you're still in pain it's worth going back. Maybe it's a hairline fracture that isn't severe enough for full plaster but still unpleasant. If there's no swelling then maybe not actual break & but better safe than sorry! Mine was a proper dramatic break, dislocated, swollen mess so no doubt about it, wouldn't wish the pain on anyone & it was constant for weeks..Put a bit of ice on it sometimes & support it until you know for sure. Hope you're feeling better soon

I'm no Dr but in when you break a bone it swells to protect it..soft tissue gets damaged too..that's what I've had problem with because when it's in a cast the soft tissue can harden so you get stiffness & it feels like a brick at the end of your arm! There's different kinds of breaks & all kinds of bits that can damaged in your wrist & hand..a sprain can be horrible but if you're worried about it then get a 2nd opinion..they won't mind checking it for you x

Morning Sulfat; it is hard to say what/if wrist is broken without x-rays;  you may have "badly sprained" the wrist and yes this will hurt if you put pressure on it/twist wrist.......perhaps if you try strapping wrist with an elastic bandage securely (but not too tight that it stops circulation) and support wrist this way for another 2 weeks or so???   cold packs will stop pain, but these too, must only be put against wrist for 10 mins at a time and wrap the ice pack in a tea-towel.........if this doesn't help, and wrist doesn't improve, ask GP for another x-ray/review  (there are many small bones in wrist, and you may have broken one of these which is hard to pick up on x-ray...am assuming that it is The wrist and not up the arm??)....hoping that this helps???...........Bron
