Is my hand broken?

Question

Before you write sarcastic comments about going to the ER I don’t want to waste time if I don’t need to I can move it and make a fist it’s just painful

Answer

You’d need an xray 🤷🏼‍♀️ you can go to urgent care which typically is cheaper and for lesser “emergencies” but youd need an xray to know what’s wrong

Answer

The whole " if you can move it, it's not broken" is bullshit. To me it looks broken but I can't really say for sure. It's worth getting checked out.

Answer

*UPDATE* I went to minor injuries today and got it xrayed and it’s not broken woohoo! Just a few burst blood vessels and a bruised bone 👍🏻

Answer

It would be easier to tell if you could tell us WHY it looks this way. Looks super swollen. I'd guess a sprain at this point because if it was broken I'd feel like you'd gave more issues making a fist. Watch the swelling, and if it doesn't go down go to the doctor.

Answer

that looks super painful! I understand that the ER is expensive and I understand that some people can't afford that (lmao me) but if you can see a doctor, I would highly recommend it. If you can't, put some ice on it and see a doctor if it doesn't get better. See if you can get an appointment with your personal doctor soon!
