Hurt Wrist, Hand, and Thumb Posted: 07-02-08 21:04pm
I fell in the shower seven weeks ago and
my wrist, thumb, and hand still hurt. I
fell on an outstretched hand. I got soap
in my eyes and as I tried to turn around I
slipped while I had both hands on the
wall. My right one in back of me and my
left on the side of me and as I fell, both
hands went all the way down until I
reached the tub surround. My left thumb
bent inward underneath my left hand when I
hit the tub surround. The pain immediately
begun and it was awful. Is it possible
that it could be more than a sprain?
This was because when I got surgery on my
ankle in April, a few weeks later, I tried
to take a shower and not put alot of
weight on my ankle and that is how I fell.
As I turned around I slipped.
