okay...ive always gotten injured with
sprained fingers,ankles,and anything
possible,im the type that plays sports and
is out of the house often,so im bound to
break/injure my self more
anyways,we were playing football,and i
went for a tackle,and as i fell,i fell on
my wrist,and i got a sharp shooting pain,i
couldnt move for around 5 minutes....i
wrapped it up that night,thinking it was
just a sprain...i had a wrist brace for
about a week without seeking medical help
that was almost a year ago,now ever since
school started,whenever i carry books or i
do stuff ,sometimes,not everytime,i get a
small pain in my wrist that doesnt stop
me,but it sure can wake me up...i was
wondering what are some things that might
be going on,i dont want to see a doctor
until im positive that something is really
wrong...thanks

It doesn’t sound serious but without
medical examination we can’t say how
serious it is. Your symptoms (pain in the
wrist) could be due to those previous
wrist injuries. X-ray image and ultrasound
examination of the wrist can be also
requested. You can visit your GP, first.
