Wrist injury from judo?

hey guys, hoping whether you could give me your opinions on whether i should get medical advice or not. I had judo on thursday evening and when at it a little more than usual. Ever since then my wrist is giving me serious pain, even with basic stuff like turning a tap on. There's no bruising or obvious swelling, so i'm not sure whats happened. If anyone can shed any light on this or what I should do next I'd be most greatful.
Cheers xx

ooops sorry guys did it on tuesday not thursday

If your wrist is still causing you pain after 3-4 days, I would go see a orthopedic/sports medicine doctor. You might have anything from a tenditis to a hairline fracture. You might have sprained your wrist. It doesn't have to be bruised or swollen but still might be injured. If it doesn't get better by Monday, I would see a doctor.

it will be sprained
rest it for a few days
if not give it another week

I get injured like that all the time from grappling in my MMA class. It's most likely a bad sprain or a pulled tendon. Alternate ice and heat (ice for 10 minutes, heat pack for 10 minutes, etc...) for an hour to see if that helps any. Take advil to reduce any inflammation and pain. Give it a week, and if it still hurts with no improvement, then go see your primary or an "urgent care" clinic.

Good luck with Judo!

Strains are injuries that affect muscles or tendons, thick bands that attach muscles to bones. They occur in response to a quick tear, twist, or pull of the muscle. Strains are an acute type of injury that results from overstretching or over contraction. Pain, weakness, and muscle spasms are common symptoms experienced after a strain occurs.

Sprains are injuries that affect ligaments, thick bands of cartilage that attach bone to bone. They occur in response to a stretch or tear of a ligament. Sprains are an acute type of injury that results from trauma such as a fall or outside force that displaces the surrounding joint from its normal alignment. Sprains can range from a mild ligamentous stretch to a complete tear. Bruising, swelling, instability, and painful movement are common symptoms experienced after a sprain occurs.

RICE is the acronym used for Rest, Ice, Compression, and Elevation. It is used as the best initial treatment of soft tissue injuries such as sprains, strains, and contusions. The combination of RICE helps reduce inflammation that occurs after acute injury. It is important to remember that the earlier this treatment is put into place, the more effective it is.

Rest: Rest and protect the injured area.

Ice: Apply ice to the injury. The cold will reduce swelling and pain at the injured site. This step should be done as soon as possible. Apply the frozen object to the area for 20 minutes three times a day for the first 48 hours.

Compression: Compress the injured site. This will decreases swelling of the injured region. Although the wrap should be snug, make sure it is not too tight as this can cause numbness, tingling, or increased pain.

Elevation: Elevate the injured area above the level of the heart as much as possible. This technique will also assist in reducing the amount of swelling to the injured site.

Once the pain and swelling are eliminated, you should start gradual range of motion exercises but not to the point of pain. Each day your range of motion will increase slightly. Continue until you have complete range of motion. Than start gentle strengthening exercises to re-build the strength in the wrist.

The stiffness will go away over time.

Good Luck
