wrist injury..train or not?

[drumerdud]

so i injured my wrist from hitting the bag yesterday, i learned my lesson no matter what use hand wraps. Before i get flammed, dont worry i know go to a doctor.bllblalba..just waiting for my mom to arrive. Im just wondering what i can do to make it feel better. Im also just wondering if its still possible to train.


a. how to treat it? ive been putting ice packs every night, and i duno if i SHOULD be doing this, but should i stretch it around? it hurts when i bend my wrist back and forward, actually, my wrist kinda does hurt typing this post. From my shoulder injury i was told to stretch it..so i was wondering if this was the same with my wrist. I know go to a doctor, but my moms out of the country, so till then im gona go with ur advice.

b. can i still work out? i figure theres no way i can do bench press bicep curls and shoulder press, but what if i use the smith machine? i notice it doesnt really hurt, if i do excercises put my wrist in vertical position. like rows, machine press,etc. So is it ok if i still workout ? or shoud i TOTALLy rest it?

I'd rest it until you hear otherwise from a doctor. Might as well heal it completely.

Just rest and wait to hear from the doctor.

y are you asking seriously you dont need advice...if it hurts it hurts you should know yourself whether or not to do weight training.

rest it and wait for mummy

massage it, cold & hot water, wrist movements (up, down, left, right) you can also grab your wrist with your thumb and middle finger and separate the bone a bit and extand your hand away from you then to your chest for 5 reps or so to get some nutrients in.
