When to go to A&...

[Closed] When to go to A&E

DavidB · 2013-05-14T23:22:23Z

About 1.5 weeks ago I fell off my bike in a comedy not being able to unclip manner on a steep hill. I may have put my right arm out to save myself. The weekend after I gardened like a mad thing, loads of chopping and hefting bags etc.. That evening my wrist hurt a lot. Since then I've done quite a few bike rides and the wrist seems to hurt changing gear but is basically OK. There is a small lump still and rotational movements are *slightly* annoying. My wife keeps banging on about going to A&E. But I don't like causing a fuss. Will they get massive arse if I only have a sprain or should I get down there and get X-rayed? Surely if I can ride a bike with it off road, it can't be broken?
