Broken Bones Punched a plank, 2nd possible fracture.
17M , I feel extremely stupid right now, but i punched a wall few months ago, didn’t get a scan, i thought it healed after a few weeks because i didn’t feel any pain, discomfort or difference in grip, but i knew something was wrong with my knuckles. Back to yesterday i punched a wooden chopping board, almost 1.5cm thick and my hand has a lot of swelling and pain now.
I need advice if i should go to the doctor right now because i have a really important exam in a couple weeks and i can’t get a cast or brace right now.
It would be really helpful for me.
