My wrist is more swollen and painful today than it was yesterday.  Change my name to Ulysses, so you can call me useless for short.

  1. We are definitely putting you inside a bubble for your own good.

  2. Not knowing when or how you exactly injured your wrist "while cooking," my guess would be more likely an overuse (like whipping eggs or cream by hand) or lifting something heavy.

    If that's the case, it's always good to go with PRICE for the first 48-72 hours:

    Protect

    Rest

    Ice

    Compression

    Elevation

     

    But after 48-72 hours, if it's not improving – or if at any time you have "point tenderness" i.e., an area that elicits pain just by touching it with a fingertip – then you should seek medical attention.  And you're getting close to that 72 hour mark.

     

    I think it'd be hard to break a wrist just "while cooking" – but I suppose anything is possible.  And I hope that whatever you were cooking was absolutely delicious.

  3. And for all the Jewish folk:

    Ma nishtanah halailah hazeh mikol haleilot?

    May Your Seder Be a Feast … Happy Passover!
